“…7), comparable to earlier investigations . With respect to the knowledge of inter-individual spine shape variability and intra-individual variations in repeated measurements of spinal alignment (Jackson et al, 2000) known as 'margin error' in pre-post-analyses (Weiß, Dieckman & Gerner, 2003;Weiß & Klein, 2006) these small changes of pelvis torsion (P-tors: -0,6° ; p=0,025) and lumbar lordosis angle (LA-max: -0,7°; p=0,012) were interpreted as relevant and statistically significant effects, following an active exercise program based on individual findings and using specific treatment elements, like a reasonably high training intensity (Dalichau et al, 2005;Denner, 1997;Uhlig, 1999) and the special coordination patterns for deep trunk muscles known as Segmental Stabilization Training (Richardson, Hodges & Hides, 2004).…”
