I am new to this forum.
I have an 8.5 year old daughter recently diagnosed with scoliosis, 27
degree angle. My husband and I have decided to take her to either the
Schroth clinic in Germany or to the ScoliosisRehab clinic in Stevens
Point, Wisconsin.
Has anyone taken his/her child of similar age to either clinic? If
so, will you please share your/your child's experience? I am not so
much interested in travel logistics and fees, but rather the overall
experience and outcome of the treatment for your child. How was such an intensive exercise/treatment program adapted to suit a young child? If you child did receive Schroth treatment, what type of brace is he/she wearing? The Cheneau brace seems to be the one recommended in combination with Schroth exercises, and with good results.
Many individuals have raved via web forums (e.g. National Scoliosis
Foundation) about Schroth exercises for their adolescent child, but I
have found little to no information about Schroth exercises for
children less than ten years old.
Thank you.
