Here’s what you can expect during your first scoliosis therapy treatment session:
Warm Welcome and Introduction
As soon as you arrive, our friendly team will greet you and guide you through the process. If you haven’t completed your paperwork yet, we’ll assist you in getting that done. We want to make sure you feel relaxed and supported from the start.
Detailed Assessment
Your first session will begin with a thorough evaluation by a scoliosis specialist. This includes discussing your medical history, any previous treatments, and the symptoms you’ve been experiencing. We may also review your X-rays or ask you to get updated images if needed.
The specialist will check your posture, spine alignment, range of motion, and muscle balance. This step is very important because it helps us understand your specific condition and design the right treatment plan.
Personalized Treatment Plan
After the assessment, we’ll explain the type and severity of your scoliosis in simple terms. Then, we’ll walk you through a personalized therapy plan tailored to your needs. Whether your curve is mild or more advanced, we make sure your plan is safe, effective, and aligned with your goals.
This may include exercises, posture correction techniques, breathing methods, and in some cases, bracing suggestions.
Hands-On Introduction to Therapy
Depending on your case, you may begin with a gentle guided session during your first visit. This might involve light stretching, muscle activation exercises, or basic Schroth Method techniques. Our therapists will explain each step clearly so you understand the purpose behind every movement.
