ClinConnect Summary
This clinical trial is studying how a special type of exercise called "Detethering exercises" can help improve muscle tone in young people with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis, a condition where the spine curves abnormally. The research is currently ongoing, but they are not looking for new participants at this time. The trial includes females aged 10 to 30 who have a specific type of scoliosis with a curve measured between 20º and 50º. To join the study, participants should not have other serious health issues and must be willing to follow the exercise program.
If eligible, participants can expect to engage in guided exercises designed to strengthen muscles and potentially improve their scoliosis. It's important to note that those who have had previous spine surgery or certain types of scoliosis caused by other medical conditions cannot participate. This study aims to better understand how these exercises might help young individuals manage their condition effectively.
