ABSTRACT

The objective of this study is to report the effect of Chuna manipulation and foot orthosis treatment on juvenile, adolescent idiopathic scoliosis by observing four clinical case studies. Pre-and post-treatment, we investigated the changes in Cobb`s angle, pelvic height and walking pattern by using the standing full spine X-ray. After application of a Chuna manipulation and foot orthosis treatment, Cobb’s angle was reduced in 4 cases. Difference of pelvic height was reduced in 3 cases, and other 1 case was increased rather. And walking balance was improved in the case of measuring walking balance pattern. This study showed that Chuna manipulation and foot orthosis treatment has meaningful effect on juvenile, adolescent idiopathic scoliosis and more researches should be followed.
