Scoliosis Specific Therapy That Lengthens & Strengthens Your Spine
So you can live an active life free of pain and worry
Where to Start
I’ve been diagnosed with scoliosis. Where do I start?
Call 208-908-8540 or email rita@scolispine.com to schedule a free, in-person, 30 minute consultation in our Boise office.
What will I need?
Most recent x-rays of your spine. You can email or fax us the images, or bring the CD with your images with you to your appointment. If you do not have x-rays, no worries. You can still book your 30 minute consult. We will take a look at your back and let you know whether x-rays will be necessary before starting treatment.
Ok, yes, I’d like to try Schroth! What can I expect?
- Diagnosis of your specific curve pattern.
- A comprehensive evaluation and education regarding your curves and posture.
- Exercises tailored to work on the best possible 3-dimensional corrections using Scoliosis Specific Exercises.
- Come well rested and dressed in comfortable clothes (sports bra for females.).
- Plan on 1.5-2 hours for the initial consultation. All follow-up sessions after that are one hour in length.
How often are appointments and how many sessions will I need?
After your initial evaluation, appointments are typically scheduled once per week. Expect a minimum of 15 sessions, with option to continue as needed.
What will I need for home?
