The Technique
This Technique
incorporates principles of physical therapy, orthopedic manual therapy, and
Pilates. Furthermore, throughout intensive study of the anatomy of scoliosis
and years of treating and observing scoliosis patients, we have developed an
effective methodology of treating scoliosis that will reduce the pathological
curvature of the spine and maintain the results. We have created a series of
step-by-step exercise routines. These exercises are performed on some of
today’s modern exercise equipment, such as the Pilates reformer and the spine corrector,
etc. We also use other, more common tools that are more
accessible for a program at home, while still providing an excellent performance
of treatment. Some of these tools are wall-bars, poles, yoga belts, and
Thera-bands.
There are many different types of
scoliosis and not all of them can be treated the same way. A
four-curve scoliosis requires a different approach than a three-curve
scoliosis. We will teach you how to identify, evaluate, and address each type
of scoliosis, because a thorough evaluation is the key to a successful
treatment.
The theoretical part of our
course is essential for understanding how scoliosis affects different systems
in the body, which then helps patients to accurately perform the required
exercises. After that, we will begin the practical part of the course. During
this part of our program we will demonstrate, discuss, and practice a series of
exercises that correct scoliosis. Even though the quality and the purpose of
the exercises stay the same, the tools and the equipment used will be
interchanged to create more strenuous exercises. This will allow the
participants who have limited access to equipment to perform a vast variety of
different exercises. 
We greatly stress educating our
patients about their scoliosis and its effects on their bodies. Their complete
understanding of the nature of their scoliosis is crucial for correct
performance of the exercises. Another important part of our Complete Scoliosis
Program (CSP) is the consistency of performing home exercises. Only with regular
exercising will clients show improvement. Therefore, throughout the course we
will teach you a step-by-step exercise program that is easy for clients to
follow and perform, at the right intensity, so it will yield the desired
results.
