Improving Mobility in Adults with Scoliosis Using the Schroth Method
Integrated Physical Therapy & Wellness in North Miami, Hallandale Beach and Wynwood sees many adults with scoliosis who want to improve their mobility. The Schroth method offers a specialized approach that can help reduce pain and increase function through targeted exercises and posture training.
Why Traditional Scoliosis Treatment Often Falls Short
Many adults with scoliosis have tried general physical therapy without getting the results they want. Standard exercises don't address the unique curves and rotation patterns in each person's spine. This is where the Schroth method makes a real difference.
Key Benefits of Schroth Method Training
- Custom exercises based on your specific curve pattern
- Breathing techniques that help rotate the spine into better alignment
- Posture awareness training for daily activities
- Hands-on guidance from certified therapists
Each of these elements works together to create lasting improvements. The breathing techniques aren't just about taking deep breaths, they actually help rotate vertebrae and expand collapsed areas of the ribcage. When combined with targeted exercises, patients often see better posture and less pain.

Common Questions About Schroth Treatment
How long does it take to see results? Most patients notice some improvement in their posture and pain levels within 4-6 weeks of starting treatment. Long-term benefits build up over 3-6 months of consistent practice.
Will I need special equipment? Basic equipment like foam rollers and resistance bands are helpful. We provide guidance on what to use at home between sessions.
