Watch this video to learn more about the Schroth Method!

Is Schroth right for you?

The Schroth method is a conservative treatment approach to managing scoliosis across the lifespan.  Highly trained therapists will guide you through cognitive, sensory motor, and kinesthetic training to slow or halt curve progression and improve spine health.

The Schroth method is unique in that it is a three dimensional approach to treatment.  This is critical as the scoliotic spine curves in multiple planes.  Your therapist will teach you how to understand the nature of your unique curve so that you know how to move in ways which are most beneficial for your spine.

The Schroth method can be applied at all stages of scoliosis, including post-surgically.  It is particularly beneficial at times when the body itself is undergoing change as these changes will directly impact the spine.  For example, during the growth period of adolescence, during pregnancy, and during the normal aging process of middle to late adulthood.

Curve Stabilization

Specific strengthening exercises, coupled with postural control and an emphasis on muscular balance and symmetry assist in increasing the stability of the spine.  You will learn techniques uniquely tailored to your curve and individual goals for therapy.

Postural Alignment

Postural alignment is evaluated closely in every Schroth exercise.  During therapy, mirrors are used to increase postural awareness and provide instruction on positions which are beneficial for the spine and positions to be avoided.
