Brief Summary:
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the clinical effectiveness of proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation (PNF) combined with spiral muscle chain (SPS) training in improving spinal function and posture in children with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
The main questions it aims to answer are:
Does PNF combined with SPS training improve trunk alignment and body balance parameters in children with mild adolescent idiopathic scoliosis?
Does the combined intervention improve spinal mobility and paraspinal muscle endurance compared with single-intervention approaches?
Does the combined intervention lead to favorable changes in surface electromyography (sEMG) indicators of trunk and paraspinal muscles?
Researchers will compare a PNF therapy group, an SPS training group, and a combined PNF + SPS group to assess differences in spinal alignment, muscle endurance, and neuromuscular activation outcomes.
Participants will:
Be assigned to one of three intervention groups: PNF therapy alone, SPS training alone, or combined PNF and SPS training
Participate in supervised exercise training sessions three times per week for 12 weeks
Undergo pre- and post-intervention assessments, including electronic spinal measurements and surface electromyography testing
