Who can join

Age: 13 and older, up to 18. Sex: any. Healthy volunteers: not accepted.

You may qualify if…

• Teenagers diagnosed with typical idiopathic scoliosis.
• Teenagers aged 13 to 18 years
• Both genders will be included.
• Participants with a Cobb angle ranging from 10° to 25°, as determined by radiographic analysis.
• Participants with Risser sign of 2 to 3, indicating incomplete skeletal maturity.
• Participants must be able to understand and follow instructions, ensuring effective participation in the treatment protocol.

You may not qualify if…

• Adolescents with significant visual or auditory impairments that could interfere with the ability to participate in or benefit from the rehabilitation programs.
• Adolescents with cognitive, mental, or psychological disorders that hinder understanding or following the instructions necessary for the treatment protocol.
• Adolescents who have previously undergone spinal surgery or any surgical interventions related to scoliosis or other spinal conditions.
• Adolescents with non-idiopathic scoliosis or scoliosis secondary to other underlying conditions (e.g., neuromuscular, congenital, or syndromic scoliosis).
• Adolescents with fixed spinal deformities that are not amenable to correction through non-surgical 3D approach.
• Adolescents with concurrent musculoskeletal conditions that could interfere with the treatment or assessment of scoliosis (e.g., significant hip or knee deformities).
• Adolescents currently participating in other clinical trials or receiving treatments that might confound the study results.
