WHO SHOULD ATTEND: Level 2 training course is only open only to physical therapists.
PRICING: For courses held in 2023: $2800 USD for 6 day L2 course.
For courses held in 2024 : $2950 USD.
COURSE LENGTH: six days
PREREQUISITE: L1 course with a passing exam and acceptance of case reports
OBJECTIVES
DESCRIPTION
The course curriculum includes Schroth-based principles of 3-D exercises for sensory-motor and kinesthetic development. The goals of treatment are to facilitate corrections of the altered posture and teach the patient to maintain corrections in daily living in order to minimize the progression of spinal deformity.
CURRICULUM
Six-day L2 course provides an in-depth explanation of the anatomy, etiology, clinical examination, and treatment of scoliosis. Participants will learn to recognize, evaluate, and treat different scoliosis curve patterns. Other concepts covered include bracing, radiological positioning (Cobb angle axial rotation, central sacral line, transitional point, Risser), and Sagittal configuration.
Rigo Concept (based upon Schroth): pelvic corrections, correction of the postural collapse (auto-elongation), correction of the front component (deflection), correction of the rotation component (de-rotation), rotational breathing, facilitation, and stabilization.
BSPTS Rigo Concept principles (based upon Schroth): 3D Postural Correction, expansion with breath support, controlling internal volumes, stabilization, and integration.
Course format includes lectures, labs for evaluation and exercise, and live volunteer demonstrations. On the final day, participants will take an exam. The L1 trained physical therapist must take the L2 training course within 1-3 years.

COURSE LENGTH: six days
PREREQUISITE: L1 course with a passing exam and acceptance of case reports
OBJECTIVES
- Understand the history of BSPTS Rigo Concept, an evolution of Schroth
- Understand the multidisciplinary approach to conservative management of scoliosis
- Perform an individualized scoliosis patient clinical evaluation
- Understand radiological variables in scoliosis assessment and classification
- Identify scoliosis patients appropriate for conservative management
- Develop specific treatment plans and goals
- Treat patients with basic 3D principles of correction according to BSPTS Rigo Concept.
- Treat in 5 basic starting positions (supine, prone, side-lying, sitting, and standing)
- Teach joint protection and proper ADL principles for patients with scoliosis
