Abstract

The purpose of this study in the patient suffering from scoliosis analyse the degree of scoliosis, Cobb's angle, by Yoga exercise therapy and then find the effects of Yoga program on idiopathic scoliosis. In this study, yoga program restores flexibility and elasticity by relaxing and contracting muscles around vertebrea. It could help scoliosis from balancing agonistic muscle, antagonistic muscle and synergistic muscle during exercise. so did pelvis movement and vertebral twisting movement. The subject for this experiment was a meddle school girl diagnosed with scoliosis in C hospital in Gwang-ju city. In order to find the effects of yoga program on idiopathic scoliosis, conducted yoga program 60minutes a day, 5days a week for 12weeks. Before and after experiment, measured Cobb's angle by radiation and verified effects. First, master of yoga and chiropractor studied and made movement together. Second, Yoga program-developed about scoliosis was prescribed for the meddle school girl suffering from scoliosis during 12weeks. Third, Feasibility and effect was verified on idiopathic scoliosis by yoga program. As a result, the amount of curvature was reduced about 5degrees than before and improved the idiopathic scoliosis. Lots of Yoga movements help patients of idiopathic scoliosis to be improved. It shows that Yoga program could give adolescent scoliosis a hand.

본 연구의 목적은 특발성 척추 측만증 환자를 대상으로 요가 운동 요법을 통하여 척추 측만각도 즉 요추 Cobb's angle의 정도를 분석하여 요가 운동 프로그램이 특발성 척추 측만연구에 어떠한 영향을 미치는지의 효과를 알아보는데 있다. 본 연구의 요가 운동 프로그램은 척추주변의 근육들의 지나친 긴장을 풀고 이완된 근육은 수축운동을 통하여 유연성과 탄력을 회복하여 운동 시 주동근과 길항근의 균형을 맞추고 협력근과의 조화로운 상태가 척추측만에 도움될 것으로 판단하여 골반운동과 척추 비틀기 운동을 중심으로 실시하였다. 실험대상은 광주광역시 소재 C병원에서 특발성 척추 측만증 진단을 받은 여자 중학생을 대상으로 하여, 요가 운동 프로그램으로 주5일, 1일 60분, 12주간 실시하여 요가 운동프로그램이 특발성 척추 측만증 변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 실시하였다. 실험 전, 후 방사선을 통하여 요추의 Cobb's angle을 측정하여 효과를 검증하였다. 첫째, 요가 및 척추 전문가와 함께 연구하여 동작을 추축하였다. 둘째, 개발된 척추측만증에 대한 요가 운동 프로그램을 특발성 척추 측만증을 갖고 있는 여중생에게 12주간 실시하였다. 셋째, 특발성 척추 측만증에 대한 요가 운동 프로그램에 대한 타당성과 효과를 검증하였다. 그 결과 운동 전보다 5도가 통계적으로 유의하게 감소하여 (p=0.006)특발성 척추 측만증이 개선되었다.
