Scoliosis Physical Therapy

What to expect before, during, and after your sessions

Every visit is structured, intentional, and rooted in your goals so you leave confident about the next step in your plan.

Initial evaluation

Your first 60–90 minute visit sets the foundation

Send your scoliosis X-rays at least one week ahead—your plan deserves a complete review before we meet. If images are delayed we will reschedule to keep your care intentional.

X-Ray review & conversation

We walk through your scoliosis X-rays, talk through curve pattern, and learn what drives you—what you enjoy, where you feel limited, and any pain you want addressed.

Posture & movement analysis

Expect photos from all sides, respiration checks, and flexibility testing so we understand how your spine moves and how your body compensates.

Strength & care plan

We gauge muscle strength, add other orthopedic measures as needed, and outline care that fits your curve pattern from day one.

Treatment sessions

Each 60-minute visit keeps you moving forward

We return to your goals, refine corrections, and layer on new skills. You leave with clear home programming and confidence in what to practice next.

Guided exercise strategy

We keep revisiting your curve pattern and the tools that help you correct it, so every movement has a purpose.

Breathing power

Targeted breathing techniques are layered into each exercise to support rib mobility and trunk stability.

Curve-specific training

Sessions stay 100% tailored to your pattern and strength profile, reinforcing gains you make between appointments.

What to wear

Come ready to move

Choose a tank-style sports bra or swimsuit top with leggings or shorts so your spine is fully visible—skip racerbacks. Many patients keep a dedicated “therapy outfit” they can grab before each visit. Bring your brace if you wear one so we can review fit and use together.

Frequency & timeline

Build momentum, then taper with confidence

Most patients start with one to two visits per week for 12–16 sessions based on curve severity and personal goals. Once you own your corrections and home program, we shift to every other week for two to three visits and then monthly or quarterly check-ins to monitor your curve. Your plan adapts as you do.
