ABSTRACT

The aim of this paper is to review and characterize the current rehabilitative and conservative methods used in the treatment of scoliosis. The importance of diagnosis is discussed and special attention is given to the effectiveness of modern physiotherapeutic methods, such as the Schroth method, FITS and SEAS. These methods show great effectiveness in stabilizing and slowing the progression of curvature. The role of corset treatment and indications for surgical treatment are also presented. The paper emphasizes the importance of an individual approach to the patient.
