Abstract
[b]Background.[/b] The aim ofofthe study was to evaluate the influence of station-based corrective exercises in the gym setting in children with idiopathic scoliosis.[b]Materiał and methods.[/b] The study group comprised 67 children aged 10-12 years with single-arch left-sided idiopathic thoracolumbar Grade 1° scoliosis.

Station-based exercises using the SYNKOPA system and Thera-Band taping. Spinał mobility in the sagittal, frontal and horizontal piane, and shoulder and pelvic girdle mobility was evaluated in all children.[b]Results.[/b] The comparison ofconsecutive examinations revealed statistically significant differences. Significant differences between Examinations I and II were revealed with respect to spinał mobility in all planes and mobility of the shoulder girdle and the pelvic girdle in some planes. Significant differences between Examinations I and III were revealed with regard to all parameters studied.[b]Conclusions.[/b] Station-based corrective exercises increased mobility of the spine and of the shoulder and pelvic girdles in all planes.
