“…These exercise programmes consisted in performing stretching and strengthening exercises, 3 days/week, 60 min/session, for 8 weeks. After the intervention, thoracic25 and lumbar curvatures significantly decreased,26 and our results are in line with this study. Yazici and Mohammadi25 reported a decrease of 3.81° of kyphosis and Fatemi et al 26 noted 6.10° of reduction in the lumbar curvature.…”

“…Both showed reductions in the thoracic curvature13 14 and lumbar curvature 13. Nevertheless, despite the fact that no studies were found which asessed the effect of a Pilates programme on the sagittal spinal curvature of adolescents with or without hyperkyphosis, two studies were found that performed a systematic exercise programme with boys who had hyperkyphosis and hyperlordosis,25 or girls with hyperlordosis 26. These exercise programmes consisted in performing stretching and strengthening exercises, 3 days/week, 60 min/session, for 8 weeks.…”

AimTo evaluate the effects of a 9-month Pilates exercise programme on the sagittal spinal posture and hamstring extensibility of adolescents with thoracic hyperkyphosis.DesignRandomised controlled trial with blinded examiner.PatientsOne-hundred and three adolescents with thoracic hyperkyphosis.InterventionsParticipants were randomly placed into an experimental group which participated in a Pilates exercise programme implemented for a total of 38 weeks (two sessions/week, 15 min/session) (Pilates group (PG), sample=49, or control group (CG), sample=48).Main outcome measuresThe outcome measures were the thoracic curve in sagittal spinal curvature in relaxed standing, sagittal spinal curvatures and pelvic tilt in relaxed standing and sit-and-reach positions, and hamstring extensibility.ResultsThere was a significant adjusted mean difference between groups in favour of the PG in the thoracic curve in relaxed standing position (−5.6°, p=0.003), pelvic tilt (−2.9°, p=0.03) and all straight leg tests (p<0.001). The PG showed a significant change in thoracic curve (−5.9, p<0.001) and in lumbar angle (4.0, p=0.001) in relaxed standing position and in all straight leg raise tests (+6.4 to +15°, p<0.0001).ConclusionsThe adolescents with thoracic hyperkyphosis from the PG had a decreased thoracic kyphosis in relaxed standing position, and improved hamstring extensibility as compared with the CG. More than 50% of the participants obtained kyphosis values inside normality, showing an adjusted mean difference between groups in the thoracic curve of about 73% of the baseline mean, resulting in a large improvement and high clinical importance.Trial registration numberNCT03831867.

“…Moreover, the findings of the present study are in line with the results of a 2010 study by Lynch et al which doubts the optimal effectiveness of corrective exercises in reducing head and shoulder forward angles in patients. Therefore, designing and executing a precise and purposeful program of corrective movements, including stretching, resistance, and mobilization exercises for the neck, shoulder girdle, and arm joint, which is performed regularly and under the direct supervision of the exam- iner, can effectively reduce the angles of the head and shoulder forward of the affected person [15]. Such features can be seen in the corrective exercises program of the present study.…”

Purpose: This study aimed to compare the effect of corrective exercise and corrective games on upper crossed syndrome in female students. Methods: This was a quasi-experimental study performed with the pre-test and post-test method. The study sample consisted of 60 people who were selected purposely, based on inclusion and exclusion criteria and the rate of the disorder. In the study sample, the mean±SD of age, height, and weight were 14.16±1.08 years, 133.49±5.59 cm, and 44.73±8.24 kg, respectively. The study samples were randomly assigned into three groups: corrective exercises group (n=20), corrective games group (n=20), and control group (n=20). Students with upper extremity syndrome were first identified through checkered screening and the New York test. Then, the subjects of both intervention groups performed the selected training programs for eight weeks, based on the defined protocols. Finally, the one-way ANOVA, paired t-test, and Bonferroni post hoc test were used to compare the between-group differences. Also, the significance level was considered as P<0.05. Results: After eight weeks of exercise, the intra-group changes in head forward, kyphosis, and shoulder angle were significant in the corrective exercises group (P=0.001) and the corrective games group (P=0.001). Also, the three study groups significantly differed in frontal angle, kyphosis, and shoulder angle (P=0.001). Conclusion: According to the findings, the corrective exercises and corrective games can effectively reduce the angle of head forward, kyphosis, and shoulder in affected persons. Therefore, researchers and specialists should plan these programs. Moreover, it is recommended to use the corrective exercises used in this study with the mentioned principles and have direct and accurate supervision of their implementation to ensure the correctness of the movements.

“…Eksperimentalnim istraživanjem koje je obuhvatilo dečake sa kifozom i lordozom poređeno je držanje tela pre početka izvođenja korektivnih vežbi i nakon osam nedelja vežbanja tri puta nedeljno. S obzirom na to da proces vežbanja i nije trajao dugo, postignuti su veoma dobri rezultati (Yazici & Mohammadi, 2017). Drugo istraživanje koje je obuhvatilo samo devojčice sa deformitetima kičmenog stuba, prilikom kog je takođe ispitan efekat osmonedeljnog izvođenja korektivnih vežbi, pokazalo je uspeh, kao i smanjenje problema i komplikacija koje mogu uzrokovati kifoza, skolioza i lordoza (Rahnama et al, 2010).…”

Introduction. Poor muscle development, accompanied by insuffcient physical activity and non-physiological forces which act on the bone and joint system, often causes improper body posture. Objectives. To examine whether performing corrective exercises which stretch shortened and strengthen weakened muscles regularly can improve body posture in preschool and school-aged children. Methods. The prospective study included 110 children, 63 (57.2%) boys and 47 (42.8%) girls (the average age being 6.6 ± 2.4). Corrective exercises were performed four times a week for six months, in periods of 90 minutes. We used somatoscopy and somatometry methods to assess body posture. Results. On the initial checkup it was found that 18 children (16.4%) had some kind of spine deformity; 11 of them (10%) had scoliosis, six (5.5%) had kyphosis and 1(0.9%) had lordotic body posture. The first follow-up checkup was performed 3 months later when we found a decrease in the number of children with a bad body posture. The second follow-up checkup was repeated 6 months later. Out of 18 children (16.4%) who had been registered at the beginning, 4 (3.6%) had scoliotic, 2 (1.8%) had kyphotic and 1 (0.9%) had lordotic posture 6 months later. Conclusion. Based on the obtained results, it can be said that regular performance of corrective exercises (strengthening weakened and stretching shortened muscles) for six months had a positive effect on certain spine deformities. Kyphosis correction was visible after only three months, scoliosis correction was visible after six months, while lordosis correction was not achieved by corrective exercises in the only registered case.
