Abstract

The purpose of this study is to find out how the lower extremity muscle exercise affects spinal alignment, gait, balance ability and lower extremity muscle strength in female college students with scoliosis. For this purpose, 7 exercise groups and 5 control groups were subjected to exercise, including leg exercise, for 50 minutes twice a week for 8 weeks. The results showed that lower limb strengthening exercise improved scoliosis and alignment of the lumbar spine, and had a positive effect on the asymmetrical left and right gait pattern, stability limit, and left and right muscle power imbalance. Therefore, it is considered that the lower extremity muscle exercise that does not require tools or instruments is an effective method for preventing and intervening scoliosis because it is an exercise that is easy to follow and has good accessibility.
