Clinical Trial Summary

The primary objective of this study is to determine if stretching exercises as a conservative treatment option will correct kyphosis in postural and Scheuermann's kyphosis.


Clinical Trial Description

Despite comprehensive documentation of surgical interventions in existing literature, the investigation into non-operative approaches for addressing hyperkyphosis or Scheuermann's kyphosis in the pediatric population has been investigated with inconsistent findings. Various outcomes have been observed with regard to the effectiveness of multiple brace treatment options, alongside recommendations for various physiotherapeutic approaches, either in conjunction with brace treatment or as standalone interventions. However, there is no universally accepted consensus regarding the conservative management of kyphosis that simultaneously ensures substantial patient satisfaction and heightened bodily awareness. Notably, there have been no studies investigating the efficacy of stretching in the treatment of individuals with kyphosis. ;
