Scoliosis assessment and management in Singapore
ASPINE Wellness provides scoliosis consultations and individual rehabilitation planning at Parkway Parade. If you have noticed uneven shoulders, a prominent shoulder blade or an uneven waist, an assessment can help clarify the next step. Appearance alone does not confirm scoliosis.

Who can have scoliosis?
Scoliosis can occur in children, adolescents and adults. Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis develops during the teenage years, and growth affects the risk of progression. Adult scoliosis may persist from adolescence or develop with age-related spinal changes. Management depends on age, remaining growth, curve characteristics, symptoms and goals.
What happens during your consultation?
Our one-hour scoliosis consultation includes your health history, posture and movement assessment, muscle-strength testing and review of existing X-rays when available. Bring previous imaging and reports. Your clinician can discuss whether further imaging or specialist referral is appropriate, rather than assuming every patient needs a new X-ray.
We explain the findings, agree on practical goals and develop an individual care plan. Goals may include movement, strength, daily function and symptom management, with curve monitoring where appropriate.
Assess, correct, integrate and reassess
- Assess: understand your spinal presentation, movement, symptoms and priorities.
- Correct: teach individual exercises and positioning strategies where appropriate.
- Integrate: practise useful movement and exercise habits at home and in daily life.
- Reassess: review your progress and adjust the plan according to your response.
Selected plans may combine chiropractic care, corrective exercise, physiotherapy and Scolio-Pilates. Joanne Goh, our Scolio-Pilates Instructor, supports movement, breathing, posture and exercise modification. Jaden Lim Junhong provides physiotherapy as part of our integrated care model. Meet our specialists.
What are the limits of rehabilitation?
There is no guaranteed degree of curve reduction or fixed number of sessions that works for everyone. Rehabilitation does not replace indicated observation, bracing or surgical assessment. For growing patients, timely review matters because treatment decisions depend on curve progression and remaining growth. We discuss referral when care beyond our clinic is appropriate.
Frequently asked questions
Can adults benefit from scoliosis care?
Adult care may focus on symptoms, strength, mobility and daily function. The appropriate approach depends on an individual assessment; a change in the measured curve is not guaranteed.
Do I need a brace?
Some growing patients need bracing. Your age, growth, curve size and progression influence that decision. A rehabilitation programme should not delay an indicated specialist bracing assessment.
Is Scolio-Pilates the same as physiotherapy?
No. Scolio-Pilates provides exercise and movement support. Physiotherapy includes assessment and rehabilitation within the physiotherapist’s professional scope. We help you understand which service fits your needs.
