What Is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine. To an extent, every human on earth has a degree of scoliosis. When the spinal curve becomes severe enough to notice, or it impacts your life, it is time to focus on correcting it. Ideally, you want to manage your scoliosis before it progresses.
The mainstream options for those who suffer with a scoliosis are to either:
-
worsen at an unpredictable rate or
-
undergo surgery via scoliosis surgeons to fuse the spine to itself or to a rod.
These options are archaic and the more we learn about the body, the more we learn about why the spine shifts like this in the first place. We have discovered how to bring it back into alignment naturally. We want Scoliosis treatment in Brisbane to be more movement based and holistic.
How Do We Fix Scoliosis Naturally At Our Scoliosis Clinic BrisBane?
Functional Patterns counteract the motions that lead to the large curve by activating the right muscles in the right sequence. This complex process of movement-based physical therapy has straightened the spines of many clients. If you're searching for a Scoliosis Specialist Brisbane, try our scoliosis clinic.
Functional Patterns is:
-
a fraction of the cost of surgery,
-
has no downtime,
-
addresses the underlying cause of scoliosis,
-
and has several other benefits along the way.
Functional Patterns is the best option for people with scoliosis as demonstrated by the results. Clients and professionals should use it as a treatment tool before a major physical event like surgery.
Our one-on-one Functional Patterns training provides mechanical changes. To straighten scoliosis, we focus on a hierarchy of needs. This ensures the body is able to change. These include factors such as:
-
Support the fascia and its hydration
-
Support the nervous system
-
Improve movement patterns
-
Support healthy levels of inflammation

Let’s look at some cases of scoliosis to see if you can fix scoliosis naturally, without surgery.
Case Study 1
Due to severe head trauma received early last year, training @melissathewong has been a tedious process. Dynamic movement was originally not an option. Her cognitive functions would decline rapidly resulting in dizziness and a loss of balance.
The application of @functionalpatterns correctives (IMAPS) and myofascial release entirely brought about the changes seen here. Training in relation to our biomechanical blueprint targets all systems of the body, including the vestibular system. Therefore, Melissa saw an improvement in her balance and coordination as we began to ramp up her dynamic movement. We are looking forward to continued results from this dedicated client.
Major Structural Change - Naturally straightened scoliosis
OCT 28 2019 > JAN 7 2020 > MARCH 13 2020
✅ IMPROVEMENTS IN SCOLIOTIC CURVE
✅ IMPROVED JOINT STACKING AND SCAPULAR POSITIONING
✅ IMPROVED BALANCE AND COORDINATION
✅ IMPROVED COGNITIVE FUNCTION AND PROPRIOCEPTION
Protocol used for this natural scoliosis reversal
-
100% Functional Patterns Techniques
-
Analysing the clients gait (walking/running) allowed us to identify the root causes of the scoliosis. We identified various shifts, drops and abnormal rotations. The client had poor connection between the hips and ribs and we also found abnormal intra-abdominal pressure.
-
We used Myo-Fascial Release - especially at the beginning of treatment. This was to assist in rehydrating the fascia (the bodies connective tissue)
-
We did movement training and Corrective Functional Patterns Chambers (the secret sauce). These helped balance out issues and asymmetries observed in the gait footage.
-
The training included dynamic exercises once the clients coordination and vestibular function improved. We continued to use the former mentioned techniques
-
Dietary protocol for greater core tension and modulation of intra-abdominal pressure
-
Lifestyle interventions for stress, sleep and wellbeing management (scoliosis self-care)
What Does Melissa Have To Say?
“I have seen significant improvement to my coordination, posture and proprioception through Functional Patterns. These sessions have played a key part in my journey to recover my cognitive and physical functions after my injury. Shane is an effective coach with a keen eye and knowledge for movement patterns. I have really enjoyed training with him.”
