Schroth method is a scoliosis-specific rehabilitation program. It’s a three-dimensional approach that aims to achieve stabilization by activating muscles to maintain the corrected posture. It is tailored for each patient based on the concept of functional segments.
The therapist gives visual, vocal and tactile feedback. Mirrors and bars are generally used. Schroth method also trains the individual to integrate the correction in the activities of daily living such as sitting in accordance with the curvature.
Schroth can be applied on an individual or group therapy basis.
