Scoliosis can be very well corrected by a Physiotherapist who is having speciality in Spine and Posture.
It can be treated without the surgery depending on the involvement or severity.
Next Steps
Treatment depends on the degree of curve, location, and cause.Minor curves may simply be watched periodically. Treatments may include conservative and non conservative treatment based on the diagnosis,like bracing.
Evidence that manual physiotherapy, dietary supplements, or exercises can prevent the condition from worsening is lacking.However, exercise is still recommended due to its other health benefits.
Recommend you to visit a skilled and experienced Spine Physiotherapist for correct diagnosis
