For Scoliosis - Three-dimensional Treatment
: This is the patient’s ability to actively realign the spine in all three dimensions using their own muscles .
: Easing the asymmetrical loading on the joints and muscles . Three-Dimensional Treatment For Scoliosis
Treating only the side-to-side curve (coronal plane) ignores the rotation that creates the "rib hump" often seen in scoliosis . By addressing all three planes, patients can achieve: : This is the patient’s ability to actively
The gold standard for conservative (non-surgical) three-dimensional care is the , a physiotherapeutic scoliosis-specific exercise (PSSE) approach developed in Germany in the 1920s . The Core Pillars of 3D Treatment By addressing all three planes, patients can achieve:
: This specialized breathing technique uses the force of the breath to "expand" the collapsed, concave areas of the rib cage from the inside out, helping to de-rotate the ribs .
: Improving pelvic alignment and overall body symmetry . Common 3D Exercises Side Plank Theory for Scoliosis Raises Questions
: Halting or slowing the progression of the curve during growth spurts .
