Abstract

Scoliosis is a three-dimensional spinal deformity with main characteristics in most cases the sideways curve and spinal curvature (organic form), which causes general deformation of the biomechanics of human body at the thoracic part or at the pelvis or in both areas. In the extensive relative medical bibliography, you may find significant proposals for conservative treatment with the use of braces and special physiotherapy exercises. Regardless their volume, in bibliography there is not a connective presentation and this raises the possibility of misunderstandings and in many cases even the incorrect use of them by the medical community. It is hoped that this project will contribute to the clarification of this issue and will help to the correct use.
