What you'll learn

  • Examine the static and dynamic posture of a patient with scoliosis
  • Examine the radiological graphs and measure the Cobb angle and Raimondi angle
  • Understand the difference between structural and postural scoliosis
  • Apply exercises by the Schroth method in the treatment of scoliosis
  • Apply exercises by the Spiraldynamic concept and DNS method in the treatment of scoliosis

Course content

1 section • 16 lectures • 2h 9m total length

  • Introduction Video1:43

    Explore scoliosis concepts, examination methods, and physiotherapy treatments, including trot method, dance method, and sporadic dynamic concept, with guidance on static and dynamic posture assessments and home exercises.

  • Scoliosis - Theory17:55

    Explore what scoliosis is as a three-dimensional spine deformity, covering classification, Cobb angle, vertebral rotation, and implications for physiotherapy treatment.

  • Theory - Examination and Physiotherapy methods21:05

    Examine scoliosis through Cobb angle on radiographs and apical vertebra rotation, with static and dynamic postural assessments, then apply rehabilitation methods such as Shroff, spiral dynamic, and dance.

  • Examination22:53

    Examine scoliosis from the posterior view to identify convexity, rotation, and pelvic tilt. Assess with Adam's test and the scallion method, and evaluate hip flexors, psoas, and hamstrings.

  • Lateral position 110:27

    Treat the concave part of the thorax and the convex part of the lumbar region in a lateral position.

  • Lateral position 211:34

    Treat the convex part of the thorax and the concave part of the lumbar region in a lateral position.

  • Lateral position 32:36

    Treat the convex part of the thorax with the help of the TheraBand and the concave part of the lumbar region in a lateral position.

  • Seated position5:29

    Exercise the scoliosis in a seated position. This exercise is preferred in the first sessions with the patient.

  • Shoulder relaxation4:50

    Relaxation of the scapula and the shoulder of the convex side of the thorax.

  • Lunge 14:55

    Exercise in a lunge position. This position will improve balance, rotation and help strengthening of the core.

  • Lunge 23:11
  • Quadrupedal position 16:34

    Master quadrupedal scoliosis correction by maintaining sagittal alignment, extending the concave lumbar side, rotating the thoracic spine, and coordinating breath with trunk stabilization, with optional Theraband support.

  • Quadrupedal position 22:54

    Engage a quadrupedal, wall-supported position to depress the shoulders, activate the serratus anterior and diaphragm, and extend and rotate the leg to open the lumbar concavity for lumbar scoliosis strengthening.

  • Vertical position 13:08

    This exercise will help stretch the concave part of the thoracic region and also the concave part of the lumbar region.

  • Vertical position 26:43
  • Breathing exercise supine position3:37

    This exercise will help relax your patient and understand their breathing pattern.

Requirements

  • No prior experience or knowledge of the Scoliosis treatment
  • Students are encouraged to take notes during the videos.
  • This course is accessible in different devices.
  • PDF materials are included to help with further learning.

Description

In this course you will learn exactly how to examine a patient with scoliosis, how to evaluate the static posture, the dynamic posture and how to do a radiological examination by measuring the Cobb angle and the Raimondi angle. You will learn theoretically and practically the basic principles of the Schroth method, Dynamic neuromuscular Stabilization method and Spiraldynamik concept.


During the course you will learn:

· What is scoliosis, what are the structural deformities in the horizontal, frontal, and sagittal plane.

· How to examine the static posture of a patient with scoliosis

· What dynamic tests can you apply to a patient with scoliosis

· How to measure the Cobb and Raimondi angle in a radiographic imaging

· What are the principles of the Schroth method, Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization method and Spiraldynamik concept

· How to practically apply all the three methods above on a patient with scoliosis


After the course you will be able to examine and treat a patient with scoliosis step by step. The course is illustrated with the real patient so you can understand the principles and apply it easily in practice. Its super easy to understand it because I have explained it in detail, and step by step all the process. I have prepared many videos for the lectures, and you can also download the materials in pdf for the theoretical part.

Who this course is for:

  • Physiotherapy practitioners and students
  • Physical therapy
  • Pediatrics
  • Medicine
  • Sport science
  • Rheumatology
