Abstract

The experiment was carried out over a period of 3 months, during 24 sessions. Subjects (n = 80) aged 11-17 years. 34 of them were male and 46 were female. We have associated a diet with some classical exercises for kinetic therapy for the rehabilitation of the defective condition of the subjects. Each subject benefited from an individualized program according to the static medical problems detected. By completing the individualized kinetic program, each of the 80 subjects improved on average 7 out of the 12 indices determined by the posturotest. The best results were recorded for girls, in the measurements monitored at the back examination. In boys, the best results were recorded in the measurements monitored in the profile examination. The main conclusion is that a controlled diet and kinetic exercises individualized for each and every defective condition improve both health and posture.
