About this trial

This study evaluates the effectiveness of inspiratory muscle training in children and adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis undergoing therapy with the Schroth method.

The intervention- inspiratory muscle training- aims to improve respiratory function, increase exercise tolerance, and strengthen core stability in the participants.

The proposed training may enhance the effectiveness of therapy conducted using the Schroth method and improve participants' performance in activities of daily living.

The project aims to assess the impact of inspiratory muscle training in children and adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis on respiratory system function, exercise tolerance, and core stability.
