Scoliosis is a 'flatback disorder' and therefore thoracic kyphosis has to be restored. As shown in this example, many of the 'old' Schroth exercises increase the flatback. These exercises are still in use today, although this is not beneficial to AIS (Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis) patients with thoracic curvatures.
