scoiliosis

HI,
we are currently reviewing our treatment for children with scolioisis in terms of exercise and we are aiming to try and use programs which are evidence based. I would be interested to know what other physiotherapists are doing?

dear mizzn004,

The only "evidence based" therapy possibilities that I know of at this moment are SEAS (Italy) and Schroth (from Germany but therapists are working worldwide).
For more information and websites please have a look around on this website. The information is already there.
