Impact of Schroth three-dimensional vs. proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation techniques in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis: a randomized controlled study.

Based on the results obtained in this study, this program of PNF patterns did not show a significant improvement in angle trunk rotation, which is a critical aspect in correction of the curve in comparison to the Schroth exercises. These proprioceptive neuromuscular facilitation patterns are not recommended for the correction of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.
