Perhaps lessen: Am assuming you are under long term supervision of a physician. If so, here are some other ideas: find someone (it may take several attempts) who practices omm - osteopathic manipulative medicine, especially gentler techniques such as cranial or muscle energy. (biodo.Com, academyofosteopathy.Org, cranialacademy.Com). Working with a feldenkrais practitioner might help as might qi gong.

Surgery: When non-operative measures fail, then surgical intervention to stabilize and correct the scoliosis is the appropriate treatment. Corrective surgery will help correct the imbalance of weight distribution, which is a major disabling pain generating feature of severe scoliosis. In severe cases, there may also be nerve root compressions and arthritis that surgery can correct.
