The Effects of Programmed Kinesiological Treatment on Correction of Kyphosis and Flat Feet Deformity in Pupils / Efekti programiranog kineziološkog tretmana na korigiranje deformiteta kifoze i ravnog stopala kod učenika

Abstract

The aim of this study was to determine the effects of programmed kinesiological treatment on transformation of postural spinal status in the sagittal plane - kyphosis and flat feet - pes planus, in IV to VI grade pupils (second triad of nine-year elementary school). The study was conducted on a 290 pupil sample.
Eight (8) variables were applied in the study to evaluate postural spine status - kyphosis and flat feet - pes planus. The research had a longitudinal character. The use of contingent tables shows the frequencies and the corresponding percentages increase the deformity of the spine - kyphosis and flat feet - pes planus.
The results of the study indicate the statistical significance of the percentage of deformity of the kyphosis and flat feet - pes planus. Changes in the arch of the feet and spine are mainly in the first stage of deformation, which also enabled the correction of the condition with the application of programmed kinesiological treatment.
Therefore, in the global assessment of the quality and justification of the use of programmed kinesiological treatment for one school year, we must state that it contributed to the improvement of the deformity of the kyphosis and the flat feet of the research sample of pupils.
