Teens with scoliosis try video coaching to boost fitness
NCT ID NCT06262269
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether supervised home exercise sessions via video can improve physical fitness in teens with scoliosis. Seventy non-athletic adolescents will be split into two groups: one gets live video coaching, the other follows a self-guided exercise plan. The main goal is to see if the coached group can row 2000 meters faster after 12 weeks.
