In today's episode, Dr. Laura and Dr. Beth dive into a topic that affects many people living with scoliosis—kinesiophobia (fear of movement). They unpack how kinesiophobia develops, why it’s especially common among adults with scoliosis, and how misinformation can shrink someone’s world over time. They highlight the importance of staying active long-term and why strength training is crucial.

Join Dr. Laura and Dr. Beth as they dive into the path to becoming a physical therapist and how some PTs go on to specialize specifically in scoliosis care.

Not all PTs have scoliosis-specific training — and that’s okay, but it’s important to know the difference. Scoliosis-specific schools require hands-on experience, case studies, and ongoing education.
