This paper subscribes the efforts to promote youth health and the prevention of osteo-musculo-articular disorders in their professional career. Physical exercise represents the central pillar in preventing the spine deficiency attitudes. Rendering efficient the prevention methods for the deficient postural attitudes requires an effort to anticipate the potential adverse effects of the new technologies on the health and safety of the young people. The paper’s aim is to make known the diversification of the kinetic and prophylactic means and of those for recovering the light deficiency posture attitudes (scoliosis) by developing programs which use basketball means. Enriching the kinetic programs through various basketball means, constitutes a necessity for executing, developing and improving the normal motor functions, but also for the re-educating the deficient ones.

“…Today's youth have to be prepared for a dynamic and continuously evolving society, which also imposes a certain physical, intellectual, moral and civic structure (Leonte, N., 2014). The changes at the social level (the technologization, excessive use of the computer, lack of physical activity) and spending a long time to perform the educational tasks, lead to posture deformations (lordosis, scoliosis, kyphosis), and this is a fact which requires an effort to anticipate the potential negative effects of the new technologies on the workers' health and safety.…”

Abstract:Even if the written information on movement by therapy, are "only" nearly 5,000 years old, no doubt that human beings had sensed long before the benefits which the motion exercises brought to restore health. Physical exercise, used both for the broad implications it has on the health of the human body in general and on most of its functions in particular, represents the basic means of the physical therapy prophylaxis. Basketball, through its means, can be considered an "associate" of the traditional physical therapy prophylaxis. Thus, one can obtain various physical therapy programs which do away with the monotony, refreshing the traditional means. Remodeling the apparatuses, structures and systems of the human body, according to the laws of growth, and also of the young people, is due to the current social dynamics, to the new lifestyles required to cope with the daily challenges, to become competitive and to integrate professionally. This paper proposes to promote the health and the prophylaxis of the body posture and alignment disorders, such as lordosis, over the lifetime, by diversifying the physical therapy means with various basketball game means.
