Hi there!
I have spinal cord injury and have scoliosis because of it. I would say it's a slight bend from T6 all the way to the lumbar spinebending in the same direction as the pic below (to the left).

I've been doing FES on the left side to stimulate the back extensors and also on the same side for my abdominals but i've had conflicting views from both clinicians and other outsiders. I've looked at this book but it's from a long time ago, although it verifies they did the same as I am doing.
So should I be doing massage on the right, stimulation on the left, or vice versa? Th internet hasn't been very helpful, i'm surprised noone seems to have a straight answer. I'm trying to correct my scoliosis the best I can.
