rotational therapy is that only recommended for pt with scoliosis in a certain degree or location of curve?
I only ask is because Ambrea started working out for an hour a day before her xray and it showed an increase in curves. Then we went to schroth and were told to avoid certain twisting positions and avoid heavy weights.
I was intrigued that two successful treatments were at complete disagreement.
we did see improvement with schroth and her curves were reduced to original curvature, verses the rotational therapy seemed to aggravate her curves.
(please note this was not the exact machine for RCT, but one that was similiar in design where the base or pelvic remains stable and the upper body twists with weights to 75-90 degrees in both directions.
