A rehabilitation program using formal performance in gymnastics to correct spinal deviations for the injured With upper Cross Syndrome and improve vital capacity

Abstract

Upper stature syndrome is not easy to treat simply by recommending the individual follow healthy habits and exercise, but he must use orthopedic rehabilitation programs for correcting the spine (formal performance exercises for gymnastics). The research aimed to design a program using formal performance exercises in gymnastics for the injured with the upper cross syndrome. The researcher used the experimental method with the experimental design for one group, using the pre- and post-measurements of it. The research sample was chosen in a deliberate way from students with the spinal syndrome, where the number of the research sample was (14) students with ages ranging from 13 - 15 years old. The researcher used the metal tape device to measure the curvatures of the spine and the Spirometer to measure the vital capacity of the lungs. The results indicated that the formal performance exercise program for gymnastics had a positive effect on improving the body shape and muscular strength of the research sample. In addition to improving the vital capacity. The researcher recommended using the formal performance training program in Gymnastics as a preventive measure in the rehabilitation of patients with upper stature syndrome
