Resistive Exercises In Physical Therapy For Thoracoplasty

Explains how skeletal structure and muscle balance are affected by thoracic surgery and how physical therapy techniques tend to offset deformities. Uses X-ray, charts and animation to show the deformities often resulting from thoracic surgery. Shows how deformities can be minimized or prevented by correct bed posture, overcorrection and resistive exercises.
