Scoliosis and Hyperkyphosis Treatment in Brisbane

Committed to an evidence-based approach to addressing scoliosis and hyperkyphosis, the team at the Brisbane ScoliCare clinic is well-prepared to assist you or your child in embarking on the treatment journey.

The process begins with a thorough scoliosis assessment conducted by one of our clinicians. This includes a detailed review of X-rays and medical history, along with a discussion about any concerns and treatment goals.

Our approach to scoliosis treatment in Brisbane is centred around the individual patient and is personalised to meet specific needs.

Following the assessment, a tailored treatment plan will be developed. The recommended treatment options will be based on various factors, including age, curvature size and current symptoms. They may include recommendations for bracing, specific exercise rehabilitation (ScoliBalance®) or surgery if deemed beneficial for the patient.

Our strong commitment to patient-centred care ensures that the individual’s goals remain at the forefront of the treatment process, aiming to enhance the quality of life and achieve the best possible outcomes for each patient.

At ScoliCare Brisbane, our clinic team is dedicated to offering cutting-edge and minimally invasive scoliosis treatment options for babies, children, adolescents and adults. Common treatment options for scoliosis have traditionally involved options like generic bracing and surgical intervention. At ScoliCare, our Brisbane-based scoliosis treatment options include:

Personalised 3D scanned braces — ScoliCare offers a truly custom 3D spinal brace for children, adolescents and adults with scoliosis and kyphosis. The unique approach means that no two braces are the same, just as no two curves are the same. Specially created for you after a comprehensive scoliosis assessment and scanning, these braces can help improve postural alignment and provide relief to common scoliosis symptoms.
Scoliosis-specific exercises — As a leading provider of high-quality scoliosis-specific exercise programs in Brisbane, we firmly believe that a dynamic and personalised exercise approach is an excellent treatment option for many people living with scoliosis or kyphosis. It is a treatment that is often combined with bracing. We call our program ScoliBalance.
Spinal fusion — Commonly recommended for patients with moderate to severe cases of scoliosis, spinal fusion is not always your only option for treatment. At ScoliCare, we encourage our patients to explore the full range of non-surgical options available before committing to surgery. For more information about our recommendations and services, please contact us today.

When it comes to finding quality scoliosis treatment in Brisbane, ScoliCare should strongly be considered. We undertake a thorough assessment and then provide details of all treatment options available, whether bracing, exercise or surgery. As advocates for minimally invasive and non-surgical treatment options for scoliosis, we believe in taking a holistic and personalised approach to supporting the health of your spine. Able to treat both children and adults, our interdisciplinary team of spine health practitioners works together to help each one of our patients on their individual journey.

Our clinicians will guide you through each step of your initial consultation with professionalism and care.

Visit frequency depends on your individual treatment plan, the type of brace prescribed (if any) and your progress. Some patients may require closer follow-up in the early stages, while others may have appointments spaced further apart. Your dedicated, Brisbane-based scoliosis doctor will discuss a suitable schedule with you after the assessment.

If you have specific accessibility needs or require assistance on arrival, please let our team know when booking so we can help make your visit as smooth as possible.

No referral is required to book an appointment. However, if you have a referral from a GP or specialist, please bring it along with any relevant imaging or medical records. We are also happy to collaborate with your healthcare providers to support continuity of care if needed.

If bracing or rehab is not appropriate based on your condition, we will discuss all suitable options, including referral to a surgical specialist. Our goal is to help you make informed decisions about your care.

For adults, treatment focuses on managing symptoms and supporting daily function. At our scoliosis clinic in Brisbane, we tailor care plans to address adult-specific challenges, such as spinal stiffness or pain. While correction may be limited, non-surgical treatment can still offer meaningful support and stability. Please read through our case studies to see how our treatment has helped others.

Not all cases require active treatment. We begin with a detailed assessment to understand the curve type — whether idiopathic, congenital or neuromuscular — and the risk of progression. If care is appropriate, our team will explain the most suitable non-surgical options available at our scoliosis clinic in Brisbane, based on clinical guidelines.

Yes — early detection allows for a wider range of non-surgical options and may help slow curve progression. Our scoliosis doctors in Brisbane assess each case based on age, curve type and risk factors to determine the most appropriate timing and approach for care. In general, early action supports better outcomes.
