Effectiveness of different methods of rehabilitation were compared. Methods and results. 63 patients were examined using scoliosometry, determination of the static and dynamic endurance of the abdominal muscles, muscle dynamometry of the extensor muscles of the back, and indexes of algotonus and vertebral syndrome. It was revealed that the lower index values of the algotonus and vertebral syndrome, lumbar scoliosis were more in patient that andergone proposed scheme of the rehabilitation. Postural dynamometry and static muscle endurance- extensor back, static and dynamic endurance of the abdominal muscles differed too in that group. Conclusion.
