Dance-Based Exercise in Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis
Sponsor: Atlas University
Summary
This randomized controlled trial aims to investigate the effects of dance-based exercises on physical fitness, body image, and quality of life in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis (AIS). Twenty-four participants aged 10-18 years with a Cobb angle between 10° and 30° will be randomly assigned to either a dance-based exercise group or a control group. Both groups will perform conventional scoliosis exercises, while the intervention group will additionally receive dance-based exercise sessions for six weeks. Outcome measures will include body image, scoliosis-related quality of life, physical fitness, flexibility, trunk rotation, and enjoyment of physical activity.
