Scoliosis

According to the Scoliosis Research Society (SRS) 1966, Scoliosis is a lateral curvature of the spine greater or equal to 10 degrees with rotation of unknown cause.

How does Schroth’s treatment work?

The treatment is geared towards addressing the postural and soft tissue component of scoliosis through making the best 3D postural correction, expansion of collapsed areas of the trunk, and learning muscle activation while not losing the corrected posture and finally integrating these into the activities of daily living.
