Synopsis

Telerehabilitation (TR) continues to develop as a field of telemedicine. TR applications address different age groups with applications in different fields of physiotherapy. One of these areas is orthopedic rehabilitation, and especially applications after knee and hip surgeries attract attention. Some of the most common problems among orthopedic disorders are problems related to the spine. In this study, studies on neck, lumbal problems and scoliosis were evaluated.  Information about the evaluation of patients in these studies, treatment methods and results were given. Patient satisfaction and compliance were emphasized. In this study, some information was given that TR can be a reliable assessment tool in spine health with the selection of the appropriate test, that treatment compliance is high, especially in synchronous applications, and that the results can achieve similar results with face-to-face applications. This study can be considered as notes on studies on spine health and may shed light on those who want to work with the TR method in the field of spine health.
