Scroth and brace

Participants in this group will wear a brace and follow a 12-month Schroth exercise program three times a week. Sessions will be supervised by a physiotherapist and last 60 minutes, using equipment like foam blocks, exercise balls, and rods. Exercise intensity will gradually increase based on progress. The individualized Schroth exercises will aim to correct spinal deformity and include elongation, rotational correction, stretches, strengthening, and breathing exercises. These exercises will help patients maintain proper posture in daily activities and will be adapted to each participant's abilities, with varying difficulty and positions.
