چکیده

Article Reprinted from Physiotherapy, November 1992, vol 78, no 11 page 810-815. This short article answers the question of “Scoliosis Straightening Exercises” better than any other that I know of in the English speaking world. The postural concepts in this article have striking parallels with the Pilates Exercise Methodology. It thus seems reasonable for health professionals to liaise with their local Pilates Studio for ongoing exercise based therapeutic programs – At least until such time as the Schroth method becomes known and accepted in the English speaking world.
