  • Understand history of Schroth-based method and relationship to BSPTS Concept by Rigo
  • Understand multidisciplinary approach to conservative management of scoliosis
  • Perform an individualized scoliosis patient clinical evaluation
  • Understand radiological variables in scoliosis assessment and classification

  • Teach joint protection and proper ADL principles for patients with scoliosis

DESCRIPTION
Course curriculum includes Schroth-based principles of 3-D exercises for sensory-motor and kinesthetic development. Goals of treatment are to facilitate corrections of the altered posture and teach the patient to maintain corrections in daily living in order to minimize progression of spinal deformity.

CURRICULUM
Six day L2 course provides in-depth explanation of anatomy, etiology, clinical examination, and treatment of scoliosis. Participants will learn to recognize, evaluate, and treat different scoliosis curve patterns. Other concepts covered include bracing, radiological positioning (Cobb angle axial rotation, central sacral line, transitional point, Risser) and Sagittal configuration.
 
Schroth-based principles of correction: pelvic corrections, correction of the postural collapse (auto-elongation), correction of the front component (deflection), correction of the rotation component (de-rotation), rotational breathing, facilitation and stabilization.---I would delete this sentence since we are trying to get more into Rigo Method and just use what I stated below
 
BSPTS Concept by Rigo principles:  3D Postural Correction, expansion with breath support, controlling internal volumes, stabilization and integration. 

Course format includes lectures, labs for evaluation and exercise, and live patient demonstration. On the final day participants will take an exam.  The L1 trained physical therapist must take the L2 training course within 1-3 years.

NOTE:  If you have already taken C1, C2 will continue to be offered through 2022, in order for individuals who started under the last certification to finish it.
