About Scoliosis Specific Exercise<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Traditionally there has been the opinion that \u201cexercise does not work for scoliosis\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While this is true for general exercise, there are scoliosis speci\ufb01c exercise programs that are supported by published evidence and are regarded as effective when delivered by certi\ufb01ed providers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For example in a small adolescent idiopathic curve, where there is a family history of scoliosis, a speci\ufb01c scoliosis exercise program can be the most suitable treatment. Another example can be when a curve is non-progressive in late adolecents or middle age, it maybe be possible to help improve posture, manage pain and stabilise the spine with scoliosis specific rehabilitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Evidence-based<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Research<\/a> has shown that when specialised scoliosis rehabilitation and exercise programs have been used in conjunction with bracing it has improved the results of scoliosis bracing. In these cases, the exercise programs may to help to strengthen the muscles supporting the spine and keep the spine \ufb02exible during brace treatment and to help maintain the correction achieved with bracing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It is important to understand that only specialised scoliosis rehabilitation and exercise programs, like ScoliBalance\u00ae<\/a> , that are speci\ufb01cally designed to treat scoliosis have been shown to be helpful. The Scoliosis Rehabilitation Therapists at ScoliCare Clinics teach patients this program, individualised for each patient.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
