Goals of treatment are to facilitate corrections of the altered posture and teach the patient to maintain corrections in daily living in order to minimize progression of spinal deformity. Courses provide in-depth explanation of anatomy, etiology, clinical examination, and treatment of scoliosis. Participants will learn to recognize, evaluate, and treat different scoliosis curve patterns. Bracing concepts will be covered. Course format includes lectures, labs for evaluation and exercise, and live patient demonstration. On the final day of each level, participants will take an exam. The SSOL certification course is open for physical therapists and physical therapist assistance who work along side of a Schroth clinician. |
