dear ms PT
if you go to youtube, you will find a selection of exercises with the Swiss ball on film.
for example YouTube - Scoliosis exercises 1/4 (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=09kmddSWA08)

You will have to search but there are documents out there studying the effects of exercising with and without a swiss ball.
Chiropractic & Osteopathy | Full text | Trunk muscle activity during bridging exercises on and off a Swissball (http://www.chiroandosteo.com/content/13/1/14)

there will be more....
If you do a bit of research and find more... please tell me
kind regards
Esther
