Patient Testimonials

"Brittany at Charlotte Scoliosis Clinic has changed my life. I was first diagnosed with scoliosis when I was 12 years old. I was told that surgery was my best option if I wanted to improve the curves in my spine. I definitely didn't want to have surgery so my family looked into other options. While researching, we found that Schroth Physical Therapy combined with Rigo Cheneau bracing not only maintained, but helped to improve most patients' curves. Luckily, we have one of the only Schroth Physical Therapists in the state right here in Charlotte. I've been going to Brittany for the last 3 years and have continued the Schroth exercises she's taught me at home.

Over the course of my treatment, my three curves have collectively decreased by 19 degrees! My orthopedic doctor is certain that I won't have to have surgery now. I have loved working with Brittany. She truly cares about me as a patient and a person, and has even come to one of my soccer games to cheer me on. She has been a huge support and I'm forever grateful for Brittany."

"I got so much out of my sessions with Brittany! Her knowledge of the anatomical mechanics of scoliosis is vast and she was able to explain my patterns in ways that I could readily understand, which helped me to then know how to correct them. Each week, she added on new techniques to my toolkit and at the end of my eight sessions with her, my curvature was greatly reduced and I felt more comfort and ease in my body. Now I have a maintenance plan to manage my condition for the rest of my life. The Schroth technique is truly amazing and Brittany knows how to facilitate it so well."

"For anyone with scoliosis — or parents of children with even mild scoliosis — I highly recommend Brittany and the Charlotte Scoliosis Clinic. Brittany is a true professional and expert in her field. As a 34-year-old suffering with back pain from a lifetime of scoliosis issues (and 3 years of bracing), Brittany equipped me to better understand my curve, my posture, the overcompensation of my body, and most importantly, set me up with exercises to help manage pain. I have seen countless doctors, surgeons and therapists over decades and can confidently say that the Schroth method works, and that the Charlotte Scoliosis Clinic is a must for anyone with scoliosis."

"I’m a female in my 50’s who has dealt with scoliosis since I was 13. When I was first diagnosed I was told there was nothing I could do for it. I started working with Brittany three years ago because of pain, balance and posture issues. She introduced me to Schroth training which incorporates physical training and breathing exercises specifically for me and my curve. Since working with her I am stronger, have more balance and almost all my pain is gone! I’m so thankful for her and her willingness to help me. She gave me the tools to know how to manage and improve my scoliosis for the rest of my life."

Brittany and I worked together for a few months last year, and boy, am I thankful! As an adult living with mild scoliosis, I’ve always dealt with pain and discomfort. It had gotten to a point where I wanted to address it and went looking for help. I was able to find Brittany, and after working together, my scoliosis pain was gone (as long as I continue my exercises), and the measurements we achieved before and after treatment - even as an adult - were wild! What a testament to the work she does and reminder that scoliosis does not mean living in pain. I continue the program that Brittany tailored for me, and I live comfortably (with the added benefit of better posture and more effective workouts). I will likely visit her in the future for a touch-up session or two. Don’t walk, runnnn to the Scoliosis Clinic!

Our daughter was diagnosed with scoliosis a year ago and we have learned quite a bit since then. After a year, we have finally been able to gather enough information and read enough studies to realize that, regardless of what orthopedists may tell you, Schroth therapy in combination with proper Rigo-Cheneau bracing (with emphasis on “proper”) is the most effective way to treat scoliosis. Please pause and read that last sentence once more.
Brittany is the only Schroth certified therapist within 150 miles of Charlotte, and she is committed to continuous professional education and development. When you go to Charlotte Scoliosis Clinic, they will look at your X-rays together with you, take their own measurements and pictures, and then develop an individualized, three-dimensional exercise program for your specific curve. After a few weeks of Schroth therapy, we could already see a dramatic change in our daughter’s posture. The Schroth method is highly effective and measurable! Brittany and her team are compassionate, competent, and passionate about helping their patients “live outside their curve.” We are so grateful for their expertise and guidance regarding our daughter’s scoliosis journey.
