    Scoliosis

    Scoliosis — an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine — affects people of all ages and degrees of severity. For many, the primary concern is pain, restricted movement, and postural imbalance. Virginia uses ASMI, a technique with a specific track record in scoliosis management, to gently mobilise the spine, reduce the muscle tension that builds around the curve, and improve quality of life — all without surgery or bracing.

    What you might notice

    • Visible curvature of the spine
    • Uneven shoulders or hips
    • Back pain or stiffness, particularly after standing
    • Reduced flexibility through the trunk
    • Rib prominence or uneven waistline

    How Virginia can help

    • ASMI has a specific evidence base in scoliosis management, including a published retrospective study
    • Gently mobilises the spinal segments affected by the curve
    • Reduces the muscle tension and spasm that builds on the compressed side of the curve
    • Improves spinal flexibility and comfort without forceful manipulation
    • Virginia was trained directly under Damien Mearns, whose ASMI work in scoliosis is internationally recognised

    Frequently asked questions

    Can ASMI straighten my spine?
    ASMI does not straighten the spine in the way surgery can. What it can do — and what the published research supports — is improve spinal mobility, reduce pain, and in some cases improve visible alignment over a course of treatment. Virginia will give you realistic expectations at your consultation.
    My scoliosis was diagnosed in childhood. Is it still worth treating?
    Yes. Adult scoliosis — whether it's been there since childhood or developed later — can cause significant pain and restriction that responds well to ASMI. Age and severity don't preclude treatment, though they do affect the goals and timeline.
    Do I need X-rays or scans before starting?
    Not necessarily, but if you have them, bring them. Imaging helps Virginia understand the type and degree of curvature more precisely and plan sessions accordingly.
