There are specific exercises that "might" target scoliosis, the only way to know if this allowed people to dodge surgery, would be with a poll or database. Some of our muscles do not respond to exercise. I have always believed that there is a neurological factor, its not just about muscles.
Some notes from Dr Kim at HSS...

It is likely that scoliosis is a result of a combination of genetics and neurological, environmental and behavioral factors. Studies of identical twins have not always demonstrated both twins having scoliosis despite their identical genetic makeup.
An additional level of complexity comes about via research associating scoliosis with different white and gray matter characteristics in the brain responsible for processing position sense (proprioception) and genetics research demonstrating mutations in genes associated with somatosensory feedback to the central nervous system.
Regardless of the specific etiology of scoliosis, if you have it, or suspect you have it, my recommendation would
be to see a spine surgeon who specializes in scoliosis as soon as possible in order to get "plugged in."
