Why do ScolioGold Virtual Therapy?

The benefits of the virtual 1:1 ScolioGold Virtual Therapy is that your therapist will be able to see your personal set-up at home and therefore will be able to specify your exercises further. The 1:1 option allows you to see your therapist and your therapist to see you, which means that we can teach you new exercises, adjust your current exercises and make sure you are doing them 100% correctly.

After each 1:1 session, you will be sent an updated home exercise programme and a feedback form with exercise descriptions.

What are the time schedules?

The fact that you can roll out of bed and start exercising immediately without travelling anywhere means that the treatment is a lot more accessible for you, as our patient!

The 1:1 sessions run from 09:00-18:00 BST daily and we run 2 group sessions per day (from 10:00-13:00 and 14:00-17:00).

How does it work?

You will have an Initial Consultation appointment via Skype where the consultant will discuss the history of your condition (e.g. scoliosis or scheuremann's), general medical history, the presentation of your back and any X-Rays that have been provided and will finally prescribe the best course of treatment for you.

Prior to the Skype consultation, you will be asked to send in photographs of your back (as above), as well as any X-Ray copies that you have of their spine. If virtual therapy is indicated for you, we can sign you up to start almost immediately.

How long is the course?

The amount of virtual therapy that you will need can vary from person-to-person. We can offer you appointment times starting from 1 hour long, if you are a current patient who wants to check-in with their therapist. A virtual check-up appointment is recommended to be 2 hours long where most of the exercises on your home exercise programme can be checked.

We always recommend a more intensive pathway if you are a new patient - this is how our patients achieve their excellent results. Repetition is key not only to improve the muscle imbalance around the spine, therefore improving the position of the spine, but also to begin to retrain the neural pathways; to ensure the brain changes its idea of where the spine should be held. Our most intensive 1:1 course is 65 hours long and achieves similar results to that of our 4-week programme.

Virtual Check Up

What’s included?

  • Some of the exercises require no equipment, some exercises can be adjusted based on the pieces of equipment that you may already have (e.g. bands/balls/stools).
  • We can provide all of the equipment that we use at the clinic (via a delivery or collection service).
  • If you book a block of 40-64 hours of 1:1, you will receive a 5% discount on the total price. If you book a block of 65 hours, you will receive a 10% discount on the total price.
By the end of your personalised online course, we ensure that you will be able to confidently adopt and recognise your personal corrected posture, without the help of a therapist and to practice this in everyday life.

I have been seeing Chrissy at the SOS clinic for 6 and a half years so I was obviously unsure of how a virtual appointment at home would work. Apart from the obvious ‘hands on’ approach being unavailable and no scan or measurements everything else was great. Chrissy was, as always, efficient, knowledgeable and encouraging. As long as your device is fully charged, (with an extension lead nearby to recharge If need be), you communicate and position devices around correctly it will work very effectively.

I found it really beneficial for Chrissy to see my bars at home too and for her to be able to advise me where to position equipment during the exercises. She also emailed and posted my updated exercise schedule and advice regarding current exercises and new ones too.

We all sincerely hope this unprecedented and worrying situation will return to some normality in the not too distant future, however, for anyone who is due to have an appointment imminently I highly recommend a virtual one with your therapist. It will certainly benefit not only your physical but also your mental well-being.

I found the virtual session really good I didn’t think It would work very well but I was really surprised how well it went. I do think I benefited from this session in many ways such as being given new exercises and correcting the old ones I wasn’t doing correctly. My therapist was able to watch my back whilst doing the exercises.

My favourite aspect of the one-on-one session was you still could speak to your therapist and ask questions just like you could if you was in a session in London, and it was just as if you were seeing her in person. No I do not feel anything could’ve been done different. The advice I would give to someone who is considering doing a virtual session is the only thing you need to do is to keep moving your iPad or iPhone so the therapist can see your back at all angles but it is definitely worth doing overall and you do benefit from these sessions.

I had an online session with Chrissy and absolutely loved it! Even though there was two other girls also in the session, I received a lot of attention on my own personal exercises and queries. I was amazed by how well Chrissy was able to spot areas for improvement in my exercises across the camera, and I came away with some really useful tips and changes to my exercises.

I would recommend these classes for anyone - whatever your motivation for joining them! You can email the team before your class with specific things you want to achieve in the session, and they will make sure that they all get addressed! Thank you so much Scoliosis SOS!
