The Schroth scoliosis program administered by Dr. Mark Mossuto and Dr. Anthony Mossuto is based on the protocols Dr. Moramarco learned at the Asklepios Katharina Schroth Clinic, Germany. Instruction also integrates the newest innovations, updates, and additions to Schroth method exercises. These important modifications, devised by Dr. Hans-Rudolf Weiss (grandson of Katharina Schroth), are now called Schroth Best Practice®–formerly Scoliologic® and incorporated into every patient program.
The Schroth program includes activities of daily living, as well as spinal mobilizations and simple 3D corrective exercises called 3D, Made Easy®. We take pride in offering what we consider the best treatment program for scoliosis. Our program incorporates the most current Schroth protocols, is comprehensive and highly personalized and efficient. We provide detailed individualized instruction, photos and videos for you that includes every component of the program so you can successfully continue the program at home.
The program includes intensive 2 hour instruction sessions. Depending on the severity of the scoliosis and individual patient goals, the program can vary from 6 to 12 hours of instruction which can be completed over a period of several weeks if needed. Each Schroth program is custom designed for you and recommendations are made according to your specific curvatures. You will learn to correct your postural stance while standing, walking, sitting etc. according to curve-pattern specific classifications and guidelines according to the Augmented Lehnert Schroth classifications. Our goal is to teach you how to stabilize your spine to counteract the likelihood of spinal curve progression as well as to reduce any associated symptoms of scoliosis you may be experiencing (this is particularly true for adults).
