Patient and Family Education

Patient education is an integral part of the program.  The goal is to help you understand your spine, your postural-related diagnosis (scoliosis, Scheuermann's kyphosis, hyperlordosis, etc.); and how your daily activities, your environment, and posture impacts your condition.  

Evaluation and Treatment

Scoliosis Basics provides posture-specific physical therapy for children and adults with scoliosis, Scheuermann's kyphosis, and other spine-related issues using the following methods:
 
Rigo Concept (BSPTS)
Schroth Method
Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis (SEAS)
Lyon Method
 
The interventions are evidence-informed and integrates the results of a patient’s clinical examination, spinal X-ray findings; and the patient and family’s goals, expectations, and lifestyle.  
 
In essence, the examination and treatment are unique and very specific to every patient’s needs.
