If scoliosis is not that serious, what is the treatment needed to be back from normal?

Yoga & Surfing: Mild scoliosis in 20's male compensated by back muscles toned by yoga & swimming. Surfers have exceedingly strong & well functioning backs. Avoid extreme sports, ephemeral glory, painful chronic musculoskeletal injuries; caused by mechanical falls vs. Firm immovable objects &/or surfaces. Often scoliosis is functional & dissipates when prone; as gravity absented above an injured unstable pelvis.

Rehab exercise : Most of the time scoliosis is not a serious issue. However, the curve must be measured as a baseline & followed to make sure it's not progressing. A pt program designed w/ emphasis on core, trunk stability & pilates is the ideal way to get back to normal.
