When working with a patient, we carry out a thorough **scoliosis assessment** , including measuring the degree of curvature and identifying areas of **weakened** muscles. The patient takes part in a set of exercises that help **strengthen the back muscles** , as well as the abdominal and pelvic muscles. Strengthening these muscles is key to improving posture and spinal **stability** . The physiotherapist may recommend stretching exercises that help relax **shortened** muscles and improve spinal **flexibility** . **We use** massage and manual techniques to reduce muscle tension, improve blood flow and **relieve pain** . The patient is monitored regularly and the **rehabilitation plan** is adjusted as they **progress** . ### Who is it for? - curvature of the spine - single-curve scoliosis - multiple-curve scoliosis - vertebral rotation - lateral curvature - increased lordosis - increased kyphosis - flattened lordosis - flattened kyphosis - pelvic obliquity - leg length discrepancy ## Book a visit 5.0 · 491 reviews Google - [**Free consultation** 15 min](https://fizjostyl.pl/en/free-consultation/#terminy) - Mon–Fri 7:00–21:00, Sat 7:00–14:00 · book online 24/7 - Wolska 2a (Prokocim) and Wicherkiewicza 23/K (Kliny) [Book online](https://rejestracja.medfile.pl/register/catalog/?uuid=9b800421-44aa-593e-f584-e55b0b74cba1&language=en) [881 505 588](tel:+48881505588) Who will help you ## Therapists [Meet the whole team →](https://fizjostyl.pl/en/team/) ### [Bartłomiej Gruszka](https://fizjostyl.pl/en/bartlomiej-gruszka/) physiotherapist Paediatric physiotherapy, scoliosis and posture, orthopaedic physiotherapy.

Yes. We provide scoliosis physiotherapy for both children and adults. ### What does scoliosis physiotherapy involve? We start with a thorough scoliosis assessment, including measuring the degree of curvature and finding weakened muscles. Then we do strengthening exercises for the back, abdominal and pelvic muscles as well as stretching, and adjust the plan as you progress. ### Will I get scoliosis exercises to do at home? Yes. As well as corrective exercises at the clinic, we prepare an exercise plan for you to do at home. ### Does massage help with scoliosis? For us, massage complements the therapy – together with manual techniques we use it to reduce muscle tension and relieve pain. However, the key to posture and spinal stability is strengthening the muscles through exercise. ### Do I need a referral?
