Raising the quality of life of students in all university careers is one of the most important challenges for Physical Education specialists, and therapy in particular; however, when beneficiaries have spinal cord injuries, they need adequate physical and mental rehabilitation. The objective was to develop physical exercises as a treatment to compensate for the recovery time of students with spinal cord injuries who attend the therapeutic area of the Universidad de Oriente, through Physical Education classes. In the research, theoretical and empirical methods were used to know the real state of the problem, in addition to the techniques to collect and process information. The physical exercises proposed are fundamentally aimed at students who have scoliosis, and in a prophylactic-therapeutic way, treatment is offered to compensate and/or prevent the time of onset of pain that allows immediate recovery and incorporation into the teaching-learning process within the physical education classes. A structure and methodological ordering of the contents was taken into account in four staggered stages during the application of the treatment, in correspondence with the individual characteristics of the sample. The specialists who evaluated the proposal considered it feasible for its application and useful.
