Abstract

The deviation of the spine from the long vertical line of the body can be detected from the early years of a child. The deviation is closely related to the position of the pelvic bones to each other and sacroiliac joints, especially their disfunction, play an important part in this process.
Even a slight shift of the sacrum relative to a hip bone causes the change in the spatial arrangement of the pelvis complex, spine segments located above as well as the hip bones. Early intervention by early diagnosis of the disfunction in little children gives us a chance to correct efficiently the pelvis relative to the spine at the level of so-called “compensatory scoliosis” when the problem lies only in the asymetric arrangement of the pelvis that affect the spatial arrangement of the vertebrae and is totally reversable.
The research team confirmed the fact of occurring “the dominant phenomenon and latent blocks of sacroiliac joints”. Its existance has been proven in 50% of subjects.
The examination and therapy of joints is relatively difficult taking into consideration the phenomenon described in this work. In case of a therapy of only one joint, no intended results can be expected in every second case.
There should be at least two manual examinations to assess the condition of both sacroiliac joints and comparing them with the primal examination. The rule of the manual therapy and examination before and after the therapy is applied in such a case.

Abstract

The aim of the study was to present a modern method of imaging the posture of the human body, namely, the DIERS Formetric 4D system. This method is used, among others, for non-invasive evaluation of the effects of treatment of patients diagnosed with scoliosis. Using the DIERS Formetric 4D device, the test of body posture can be done almost any time without the use of a temporary regime between studies. This allows assessment of both the effects of the treatment carried out in the short term, as well as the assumptions of the plan for further treatment.
According to the authors, the use of the DIERS Formetric 4D method to control the effects of scoliosis treatment is extremely important because of the possibility of frequent performance this test, its short duration and repeatability of the achieved results.  They are available very quickly and there is a possibility to compare them with the results of previous tests, thereby greatly facilitating the work of physiotherapists.
