Importance of physiotherapy intervention in school-age children with functional scoliotic posture
HLOUPÁ, Veronika
The bachelor thesis is about a physiotherapy in school-aged children with the functional scoliotic posture. In a theoretical part I started with a description of poor body posture in general and then I explained the difference between scoliotic posture and scoliosis. I mentioned an anatomical data about spine and deep stabilization system. I characterized the school age and I wrote about the scoliotic posture prevention and therapy. In a subsection about the therapy, I mentioned a question how to motivate children to exercise. In the end of the theoretical part, I described several physiotherapeutic methods, which are appropriate for the scoliotic posture therapy. A practical part of my bachelor thesis is processed by qualitative research using three case reports worked out about school- aged children with the functional scoliotic posture. The research was going on for almost three months. In the beginning of the study, I took an anamnesis and an initial kinesiological analysis. Therapies were put together on the basis the initial kinesiological analysis and children practiced exercises which were chosen with my supervisor before the research started. In the end of the study, I evaluated results using a final kinesiological analysis. In a chapter Methodology I described examinations I did with children within kinesiological analysis. Goals of my bachelor thesis was outlining the issue of the functional scoliotic posture in school-aged children and suggesting suitable physiotherapeutic methods for therapy of school-aged children with the functional scoliotic posture. The bachelor thesis can be used as source of information for physiotherapists in practise, students of physiotherapy or for parents of school-aged children with the functional scoliotic posture or with risk of its formation.

The influence of yoga on patients with scoliotic posture in sedentary type of work
SOPKOVÁ, Daniela
Subject of this Bachelor Thesis is an impact of yoga on patients with the scoliotic posture in sedentary type of work. Content of the Bachelor Thesis consists of theoretical as well as practical aspects. The theoretical part defines terms such as the scoliotic posture, sedentary job and yoga. Particularly, the theoretical part involves examination procedures testing the scoliotic posture, methods and concepts of the scoliotic posture treatment as well as its correction and, last but not least, impact of yoga on the scoliotic posture based on outcomes of current research and studies. Objective of the thesis is summarization of the theoretical knowledge relating to the scoliotic posture and the sedentary type of a job. Additional aim was based on outcomes of elaborated casuistry of patients that resulted in an exercise unit creation consisting of some elements of yoga and monitoring of particular impact of the established exercise unit on the scoliotic posture of the observed patients. The practical part consists of qualitative research that includes elaborated casuistries of three patients at the age of 30 to 50 years with the sedentary type of jobs who suffer from the scoliotic posture. Component parts of the casuistries represent taken medical anamneses, input and output of kinesiology analysis, a therapy schedule and course of the therapy description. Based on medical outcomes an exercise unit with some yoga elements was compiled, which took place in the form of group exercises once a week for 3 months. Throughout the therapies accomplishment the scoliotic posture improvement, pain and discomfort relieve, and the breathing stereotype change was observed. These facts imply that the yoga therapy has a positive effect on the scoliotic posture. This presented thesis could serve as an educational material for students of physiotherapy, yoga instructors as well as the general public.

Scoliotic posture in children aged 11-15 years from the perspective of the physiotherapist . Subtitle: Floorball as a possible cause.
Honzová, Petra ; Tichá, Monika (advisor) ; Hálková, Jindřiška (referee)
Title: Scoliotic posture in children aged 11-15 years from the perspective of the physiotherapist Subtitle: Floorball as a possible cause Abstract: The thesis consists of a theoretical and a practical part. The theoretical part provides an overview of this functional disorder among the causes of which are leg length discrepancy, incorrect sitting habit, one-sided sport, the burden of school bags and insufficient physical activity of children and youth. The theoretical part also contains an overview of preventative and possible corrective measures for this type of incorrect posture. The practical part consists of three case studies of children aged 11-15 years (1 girl, 2 boys) who play floorball three times a week and suffer of scoliotic posture. Each case study contains a thorough initial and final kinesiological examination, proposes an individual therapy plan and describes its execution. The therapies lasted for 8 weeks and focused on stretching of contracted muscle groups, flatfoot treatment and strengthening of deep core stability muscles. The results were used to create a set of suitable compensatory exercises which will be included as part of every training of youth in a Prague floorball team in order to reduce the number of cases of incorrect posture among these young players. The purpose of the...

Autochthonous Musculature and its effect on Scoliotic Hold
VRÁNOVÁ, Barbora
This bachelor thesis deals with the influence of autochthonous musculature on scoliotic posture. The term autochthonous musculature means the deepest layer of back muscles situated along the spine. Autochthonous musculature is one of the components of the spine stabilization system. Together with the diaphragm, the transverse abdominal muscle and with the pelvic floor muscles it supports particularly the lumbar spine. The function of the autochthonous musculature is to set correct mutual position of two adjacent vertebrae and thus prevent the spine from incorrect loading. Its dysfunction may lead to scoliotic body posture. The thesis consists of a theoretical and a practical parts. The theoretical part explains the term autochthonous musculature and scoliotic posture. It also contains tests examining autochthonous musculature and selected conceptions and methods of its activation. The aim of the thesis was to elaborate case studies of patients with scoliotic body posture and to compare their condition in the input and the output examination before and after proposed and applied kinesiotherapy, to map the concrete influence of autochthonous musculature weight training on scoliotic posture of the monitored patients. Research questions were based on the aims: whether better position of the spine axis could be observed in the patients and whether autochthonous musculature weight training had positive impact on scoliotic posture. The practical part was based on qualitative research method. Data collection was performed by means of elaboration of case studies using the methods of interview, observation and kinesiological analysis. The case studies include the anamnesis taken, the input and output kinesiological analysis, a short-term therapy plan, description of the therapy course and a long-term therapy plan. The research sample consisted of four probands of different age. All the patients suffer from scoliotic body posture. The therapy lasted 10 weeks. Slight improvement of scoliotic body posture was achieved during the applied therapies by activation of the deep stabilization system of the spine, not only the autochthonous musculature. The deep stabilization system always works as a whole and activation just one of its components is impossible. This is why we cannot say that autochthonous musculature has positive influence on scoliotic posture. The results however show that the posture can be improved by activation of the deep stabilization system of the spine.
