Three-dimensional scoliosis therapy has for decades played an
established role in the conservative management of mild and even of
severe scoliosis. As well as describing every aspect of the
pathologically curved, deformed spine, this textbook incorporates
an extensive programme of exercises that can be tailored
specifically to the needs of the individual patient. As outlined in
Three-Dimensional Scoliosis Therapy: The Schroth Breathing
Orthopaedic System, correction of the spinal deformity is based on
a special breathing technique and active muscle stretching, as well
as on elongation, detorsion and reduction of lordosis. The
provision of psychological support for the patient is also
emphasised as a key element. Christa Lehnert-Schroth born 1924 in
Meissen She worked as a physiotherapist for about 50 years with
scoliosis patients and further developed her mother's breathing
orthopaedic technique with great success. Between 1961 and 1995
Christa Lehnert-Schroth - always surrounded by physicians - was
director of the private Katharina-Schroth-Klinik in Bad
Sobernheim/Germany. In many lectures, articles, seminars and films
for physiotherapists and medical doctors in addition to recorded
discs for patient's training at home she illustrated her mother's
special method for scoliosis assuring well being of many patients
and in honor her mother's legacy.
