Schroth Scoliosis

A 3-dimensional exercise approach for scoliosis in adolescents and adults to help strengthen and balance the trunk, pelvis, and to correct inequities of the spine. The goal is to develop the inner muscles of the rib cage in order to change the shape of the upper trunk and to correct any spinal irregularities. The physical therapist will instruct the patient in specific exercises to straighten, centralize and de-rotate the spine with corrective breathing techniques.
