“…However, the body posture may be influenced by many other intrinsic and extrinsic factors such as heredity, physical conditions that the child is exposed, level of physical activity, physiological adaptations due to growth and body development, among others (21,27,28) . It is believed that all these factors involved in postural control would justify the findings of this study, once the change in the horizontal alignment of the head occurred independently of the breathing mode and the mouth breathing etiology, contradicting the findings of several authors who observed more evident changes in head posture in mouth breathers (2,8,9,19,26,29) . On the other hand, the findings of the present study are consistent with those obtained in a research of school-age children from 7 to 10 years.…”

“…Em um deles 3 , os autores relataram que após o tratamento houve uma diminuição na atividade elétrica dos músculos esternoclidomastóideo, suboccipitais e trapézio superior, avaliados durante a inspiração nasal em crianças RB. Além disso, obtiveram uma melhora significativa na posição de anteriorização da cabeça na avaliação que sucedeu o tratamento 12 . Considerando-se os resultados deste estudo, concluí-se que a intervenção fisioterapêutica seja fundamental na correção dos comprometimentos posturais envolvidos na SRB.…”

“…Ainda, por exigir um maior controle corporal, incrementa o reforço muscular promovido pelos exercícios 3,12 . Assim, o objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar e comparar a postura craniocervical de crianças RB antes e após tratamento postural em bola suíça.…”

“…A avaliação postural por nós utilizada é procedimento rápido, não invasivo, de baixo custo e fácil de ser aplicado na prática clínica, e seus resultados correlacionam-se com estudos que utilizaram avaliações clínicas e computadorizadas [26][27][28][29] . Entretanto, ressalta-se a importância e necessidade de estudos longitudinais controlados para caracterização específica das alterações posturais.…”
