Effect of Lyon and Schroth Techniques on Adolescent İdiopathic Scoliosis

Today, it is known that the conservative treatment of scoliosis is gaining importance. In addition, no study has been found comparing the efficacy of two important conservative treatment methods, the Schroth and Lyon method, in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Accordingly, this study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of schroth and Lyon exercises in individuals with AIS.

Treatment and study plan

Schroth Treatment

Other

Schroth exercises consist of passive and active postural auto-correction exercises done repeatedly and based on kinesthetic and sensorimotor principles. The ultimate goal of the Schroth method is to enable the patient to consciously maintain correct posture in their daily living activities. To achieve this requires repeating corrective movements performed to improve postural motor control. Schroth exercises also include strength and endurance training of postural muscles in order to improve the curve, raise the patient's self-image, and reduce pain. In this study, the Schroth exercises progressed from more to less passive support, from more to less feedback, and from lying to sitting or standing positions, according to the patient's ability to perform the specific exercise
