Metoda Lehnert-Schroth
Lehnert-Schroth Method - a method of physiotherapy used to treat spinal curvature, developed in 1910 by Katherine Schroth and developed by her daughter Christa Lehnert-Schroth.
It is an orthopedic-breathing system consisting of three exercises: forehead, sagittal and transverse. In scoliosis, kyphosalgia and lordoscoliosis, asymmetric exercises are performed, and symmetrical in the sagittal plane (kyphosis, lordosis). Exercises should be done systematically and with great intensity. They are effective even in adults. Assumptions of the method
In the Lehnert-Schroth method, the posture of the body is treated as a set of 3 parallel rectangles stacked on top of each other. The first of the rectangles includes the pelvis, lumbar spine and lower abdomen for navel and lower ribs. The second includes the upper abdomen and the chest. Its lower boundary defines the 12th thoracic vertebra and the upper 3rd thoracic vertebra. The third of the rectangles is bounded by the outline of the limbs and shoulders. At the correct position of the body, in the side view, due to the physiological curvature of the spine, these rectangles appear as trapezoids. Very much in this method plays consciously breathing, which is a kind of "center" of internal correction, increasing the possibility of external correction. Katherina Schroth came up with the idea that if the blowing of the rubber tubing of the ball causes all her dents to eject, then in the same way the distorted chest may change shape under special breathing exercises.
