A growing body of evidence supports the use of physiotherapy in the treatment of scoliosis patients. Bracing, which was long frowned upon, is now widely accepted as having a scientific basis. In contrast, evidence for surgical treatment of scoliosis is weak, and recent research on long-term outcomes raise severe doubts. As a result, the conservative, non-surgical treatment of scoliosis has a bright future. The good news is that recent advancements in specialised physiotherapy and bracing, focused at assisting individuals based on their unique curve patterns, now give better prospects of halting curvature progression and even reducing a large proportion of curvatures. Scoliosis therapy aims for results that are acceptable in normal life while minimising the impacts on the patient. Patients can develop a sense of postural awareness and self-help by learning to avoid curvature-stimulating activity in a short amount of time and without much theoretical training.
