Welcome to ScolioAustin
We are a boutique scoliosis-that specializes in using Physiotherapeutic Scoliosis Specific Exercises based on the Schroth Method and ScolioPilates to enhance the lives of our patients diagnosed with physical therapy for scoliosis and spine-specific needs of our patients
PSSE based on the principles of Schroth Method
Physiotherapeutic Scoliosis Specific Exercises are based on the principles of many schools including the Schroth Method, Rigo Concept and SEAS (Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis). We treat scoliosis from a 3-D functional perspective according to each person's curve to help them stabilize and reshape their body for activities of real life.

Discovery Visit
Getting Started
Have you or your child been diagnosed with Scoliosis or other spinal deformities that cause back pain and anxiety about things getting worse in the future? If so, you are not alone. Research shows that 3-5% of the population shares your diagnosis and, yet, helpful information and conservative treatment options that stray from the “wait and see” approach have been hard to come by. Have you struggled to find the right information about how to proceed after the diagnosis or how to prevent the curve from getting worse? This can be a frustrating, almost paralyzing, time if you don’t have anywhere to turn for quality answers.
A good place to start is with a DISCOVERY CALL. This no-commitment, 30 minute consultation gives us an opportunity to introduce ourselves and find out what your main concerns and goals are so that we can ensure the Schroth Method is a good fit for your needs.
Take Control of Your Curve
The Schroth Method is an approach for treating scoliosis that uses customized exercises (PSSE - Physiotherapy Specific Scoliosis Exercises) & breathing techniques that are uniquely designed to help stabilize and reduce scoliosis curvatures. Most conventional exercise are done the same on both sides of the body but PSSE are applied unilaterally and designed to help correct the imbalances of the scoliosis spine by lengthening and strengthening the weakened muscles on the inside of the curvatures, so you can stop worrying about future problems, ongoing curve progression and anxiety about how the things you do on a daily basis might be causing more damage to your spine.

Payment & Our Promise to You
Please NOTE:
Danielle does not bill insurance companies directly because it allows her to spend more time and attention solely on her patients and not in dealing with insurance issues. The patient is expected to pay for therapy sessions at the time of service and, upon request, we are able to submit your bill to your insurance on your behalf. Reimbursement will go directly to you. When services are provided by a licensed physical therapist who is also certified as a Schroth Scoliosis Therapist, Scoliosis Specific Exercises and management are considered under the umbrella of physical therapy services. Most of my patients have had very good reimbursements as long as their insurance plans include out-of-network benefits. HSA/FSA cards are accepted and payment plans can be discussed on an as-needed basis.
