The effect of complex training on the children with all of the deformities including forward head, rounded shoulder posture, and lumbar lordosis

Abstract: The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of complex training on children with the deformities including forward head, rounded shoulder posture, and lumbar lordosis. The complex training program was performed for 6 month three times per week. The complex training improved posture as measured by forward head angle (FHA), forward shoulder angle (FSA), and angle between anterior superior iliac spine and posterior superior iliac spine (APA). In the present results, complex training might overcome vert… Show more

“…In other words, the higher the lumbar lordosis, the greater the lung volumes and low rates. The ideal spinal alignment is related to abdominal muscles (32). The occurrence of lumbar hyperlordodis is associated with low physical activity levels, primarily the strength of muscles that surround the spine, such as the abdominals (33).…”

“…Moreover, postural changes occur continuously during the entire ontogenesis, with critical periods at school age and puberty (32,37). If perpetuated, mouth breathing in adulthood can cause a decrease in diaphragmatic amplitude and electrical activity of accessory muscles owing to muscle shortening (36).…”

“…With forward head, it is possible to observe disuse of the deep cervical flexor muscle and dominance of the superficial cervical flexor, such as the sternocleidomastoid muscle (SCM), tonic contraction of the SCM, sustained cervical flexion movements and shortening of this muscle 23 . The difference found in head positioning between preschool and school age can be explained as normal postural alteration from musculoskeletal maturation but can be aggravated by the weight of schoolchildren's backpacks 6 and daily postural habits such as long periods of sitting in an inappropriate position during classes and activities at home, which produce inappropriate head, shoulder and spinal posture 24,25 . Analysis of the shoulder angle variable showed a difference between the two periods (preschool and school), where shoulder protrusion was observed in the preschool children.…”
