Abstract

Background and Aims: Scoliosis is the most common type of spinal abnormalities, which, in addition to trunk deformity, can lead to mental disorders. The purpose of the present study was to investigate the effect of Pilates corrective exercises of Body Dysmorphic Disorder (BDD) in female students with non-structural scoliosis. 
Materials and Methods: A semi-experimental pre-test and post-test design study was carried out on 11 women with non-structural scoliosis with a lateral curvature in thoracic and thoraco-lumbar and average of cobb angle more than 10 degrees. The participants in the experimental group were 29±3/37 years old, 161/72±5/32 cm, and 57/61±3/81 kg, who were selected purposefully. Body Dysmorphic Metacognition was assessed using B.D.M Questionnaire (BDMQ) and degree of scoliosis was evaluated using photogrammetry method before and after the intervention. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential (T-test) statistics (p<0.05).
Results: The results of the present study showed that the eight-weeks of Pilates correction exercises did not result in significant difference in body dysmorphic metacognition scores of women with non-structural scoliosis (p=0.22, 95%CI=-9.65-2.56).
Conclusion: According to the results obtained, Pilates corrective exercises do not significantly decrease body dysmorphic metacognition scores in women's students with non-structural scoliosis. This may be one of the reasons of the low degree of and severity of scoliosis abnormality in participants.
