This study investigates the effects of Coordinative locomotor training on spinal imbalance and posture in patients with idiopathic scoliosis. This study included two patients with idiopathic scoliosis, each with thoracic type. The study was designed as a single-case study (A-B-A’). The total duration of the study was 8 weeks. In the first week, participants were recruited and consent forms were completed. The second week was the initial baseline period, weeks 3-7 were the intervention period, and week 8 was the final baseline period.
Coordinative locomotor training consisted of a 10-minute warm-up, 30 minutes of exercise, and a 10-minute cool-down, performed for a total of 50 minutes per session. Primary outcome measures were measured using moti-physio to assess spinal imbalance. Secondary outcome measures were assessed by evaluating posture from the front, side, and back. Statistical analysis was performed using descriptive statistics and visual analysis with graphs to show changes in percentage using Windows 27.0. The results of this study showed that both participants demonstrated improved spinal imbalance and posture during the intervention period compared to the initial baseline period, and maintained this improvement during the final base line period. This study suggests that applying Coordinative locomotor training can be an effective intervention for improving spinal imbalance and posture in patients with idiopathic scoliosis in a rehabilitation setting.
