Abstract
Scoliosis, the most prevalent orthopaedic condition affecting children and adolescents, may have long-lasting medical and social consequences. The objective of the present study was to elucidate the possibilities and practicability of the application of a low-frequency electrostatic field for the conservative treatment of grade I and II scoliosis in children. The electrostatic field is shown to promote the development of vibrations of varying strength in biological tissues and their penetration rather deeply into their interior. We examined and treated 94 children divided into two groups matchedfor the age and major clinical manifestation of the disease. All the patients received basic therapy. Patients from the study group were additionally given low-frequency electrostatic therapy. The application of a low-frequency electrostatic field for the conservative treatment of grade I and II scoliosis in the children was shown both to significantly increase its effectiveness and facilitate regression of scoliosis.
