To provide specialist physiotherapy to back up our non-surgical bracing treatment for Scoliosis, we have teamed up with Scoliosis SOS which was founded in 2006 by clinic principal, Erika Maude, following her own experiences with scoliosis.
Originally Scoliosis SOS treated patients solely using the Schroth method but found that there were elements of postural correction that the method was unable to address optimally on its own.
Over the years, Scoliosis SOS has combined many aspects from the various schools of scoliosis-specific physiotherapy exercise therapies and developed the ScolioGold method which recognises that not one single method works best for everyone.
Schroth treatment remains a central part of their successful scoliosis treatment but it is now enhanced by other well-established therapeutic techniques.
The team of physiotherapists at Scoliosis SOS has several years of experience combining their therapy with bracing derivatives of the Cheneau-Gensingen brace. It is this combined scoliosis treatment that is recognised as the most effective at reducing the need for surgery.
In Kingston, we are proud to work with Scoliosis SOS team member Finty Ilsley, accredited ScolioGold Therapist, based in Kingston and London.
Finty is available for appointments at our Kingston clinic on Wednesdays and Thursdays between 09:00 and 18:00.

When Sophie noticed her baby Max had a persistent flat spot on his head, she was told it would resolve naturally—but it didn’t. Seeking a second opinion led her to the London Orthotic Consultancy, where Max was diagnosed with severe plagiocephaly.
A little more than four years after the LOCband Lite's launch, we're proud to have successfully treated our 250th helmet therapy patient at our Romford clinic using our cutting-edge 3D-printed cranial band. After five months of treatment, her final scan showed that her asymmetry had decreased from 12 mm to 3 mm.
Sky News published an article this month quoting scientists at Southmead Hospital who claimed there was a lack of research into flat head syndrome and its treatment with cranial remoulding (helmet) therapy. This is our response.
