Scoliosis volume 9, Article number: P15 (2014)
Introduction
In the process of treating scoliosis essence of treatment is to maintain normal patterns of attitudes through appropriate antigravity muscle tone. Stimuli proper posture pattern in the period in which the child does not perform exercises provide appropriately selected and made corset. The use of dynamic slicing applications - Kinesiology Taping at the surface of the skin also stimulates the child to maintain proper muscle tone shaping correct posture.
Material and method
Evaluated in a group of 40 children diagnosed with idiopathic scoliosis in age from 10 to 15 years residing in the treatment by the Fed at the Centre for Rehabilitation in Zgorzelec.
