The Schroth therapist will examine the patient closely, and this will often be done with the aid of a mirror. This allows the patient to observe the posture himself. It is special for many patients to be able to see the curvature caused by scoliosis in this way, and to observe how they use their back during daily activities. For example, someone with scoliosis always prefers to move “with the curve”, which unnoticed and unintentionally stimulates the curvature. When you become aware of this you can also change this.

The exercise program is applied to the individual situation. The aim of the therapy is to prevent and preferably reduce the worsening of the scoliosis.
