Physiotherapy: Supervised exercises with a physiotherapist would be a good starting point. Scoliosis is a chronic condition. Before you might come to surgery a trial of physical therapy should be instituted. Make sure you address leg length discrepancies and things like low calcium or low vitamin D.
