Scoliosis
Scoliosis is a condition where the spine curves sideways, shifts sideways and rotates, causing a 3-dimensional change in the spine and trunk.
It occurs in functional and possible structural changes in the three planes of the body and could be defined as a three-dimensional torsional deformity (Grivas2006).​ Although scoliosis can affect anyone, it’s most often found in children and teenagers. Understanding the different types of scoliosis is crucial not only for diagnosis but also for determining the most effective treatment strategies.
Screening and
Diagnosis​
If you suspect that you or your child may have scoliosis, but have not yet been diagnosed, we recommend you to schedule a screening appointment.
​
During 45-minute appointments we will discuss:
-
Brief Subjective History: Share any concerns related to posture or pain;
-
Postural Assessment: Evaluate your posture to identify any issues;
-
Scoliometer Measurement: Measure your trunk rotation, which may indicate a spinal curve;
-
Inclinometer Measurement: Assess your trunk alignment from the side-view;
-
Analyse your X-ray, MRI, CT scan, EOS (if submitted)

About me
My name is Valdas Valutis
I am a Clinic Manager and Head Physical Therapist with a deep focus on early scoliosis detection and treatment.
I have worked with scoliosis patients since 2011, treating more than 5,000 pediatric patients conservatively, as well as providing care for post-surgical cases.
In 2012, I began working at a German orthopedic hospital, where I gained expertise in treating scoliosis patients using the original Schroth Method, both conservatively and post-operatively. Since then, my primary focus has been on pediatric and adolescent scoliosis.
