Orthopedists and rehabilitators have extensive experience helping patients with hyperkyphosis, resulting from Scheuerman's disease, Bekhterev's disease, or osteoporosis. The medical center is equipped with an X-ray, scoliometer, body plethysmography (lung function test), blood gas analysis, and stress ECG (measurement and recording of heart rhythm and electrical stimulation of the heart muscle) for a thorough investigation of different disorders and the impact of scoliosis on organ functions. 3D raster stereography allows rapid measurement and analysis of the back surface and spine shape without radiation. Cure measures are possible after establishing the diagnosis and starting with a curvature angle of 10 degrees and more. According to Katharina Schroth, the basic approach is the three-dimensional remedy of scoliosis, which consists of stretching and untwisting the spine with the help of physical therapy and breathing correction. The intensity of therapy is about 4 hours a day. In addition to normalizing the condition of the spine, there is work on the feeling of correct posture. Sensorimotor feedback activates the sense of movement and posture thanks to a large mirror. Careful planning of further rehabilitation at home and information on follow-up examinations are also carried out. In addition to the main course, patients can, if necessary, undergo additional physiotherapeutic procedures in the form of manual expansion and treatment methods, according to Cyriax, McKenzie, Brugger, and Klein-Fogelbach. Rehabilitation specialists also use lymphatic drainage, electrotherapy, and massages. Psychological help is provided to everyone to create incentives for treatment and support patients with social problems. Bad Salzungen Specialized Asklepios Katharina-Schroth Medical Center is a modern rehabilitation clinic to treat scoliosis and prevent further complications.
