METHOD OF CORRECTING SCOLIOSIS AND POSTURAL DISORDERS

摘要

The claimed method of correcting scoliosis and postural disorders consists in a patient with scoliosis or a postural disorder wearing a weight, which is secured to the body or to a limb and has a mass of from 1 to 3 percent of the patient's body mass, for a period of 2-5 hours per day, and performing routine daily exertions with the weight, and, in order to enhance the effect, dynamic exercises (marching on the spot) for a period of 15 minutes per day. The weight is fastened to a body region and the mass of the weight is selected such that during performance of a dynamic physical exercise (marching on the spot), the spinal column is corrected by means of the redistribution of tone in the muscles of the torso. Correction evolves over a period of 1-3 months. Posture is checked every month. Once lasting correction of scoliosis or a significant improvement in posture is achieved, the action carried out using this method is ceased.
