Schroth method with core exercises for scoliosis
Part of Bones, joints & muscles clinical trials.
This study tests if adding core-strengthening exercises to the Schroth method helps teenagers with idiopathic scoliosis better than the Schroth method alone. It aims to find a more effective way to improve posture and reduce curve progression.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 10 and 18 years old.
- You have been diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis (a curve in the spine with no known cause) and your Cobb angle (a measure of the curve) is between 10 and 30 degrees.
- You may also have Down syndrome alongside the scoliosis.
- You have not had spine surgery or a condition like cerebral palsy, epilepsy, hip dysplasia, or a leg length difference.

This study tests whether adding breathing exercises to standard core exercises helps improve spine curvature in teenagers with mild scoliosis. It may help reduce pain or slow curve progression without surgery.
This study tests whether adding kinesio taping to a special exercise program (Schroth therapy) helps reduce pain and improve posture in young adults with mild scoliosis. It may offer a non-surgical option to manage symptoms.
This study compares two ways of doing Schroth exercises (special exercises to help straighten the spine) for teens with moderate scoliosis. One method uses a virtual reality headset, and the other uses the traditional approach. The goal is to see which improves how the spine moves during daily activities.
This study looks at how a specific exercise program affects posture and quality of life in teenagers with scoliosis (a curved spine). It compares results to teens without scoliosis to see if the exercises help.
This study compares two types of physical therapy for teenage girls with scoliosis: core stabilization exercises (which strengthen the muscles around your abdomen and lower back) versus traditional rehabilitation exercises. The goal is to see which approach works better at improving your spine curve and overall function.
This trial compares two types of exercise—Schroth and Pilates—to see which works better for teens with mild scoliosis. It may help improve posture, strength, and quality of life.
