Scoliosis physical therapy minutes from South Miami

A straight shot down US-1 — about 10 minutes to our Pinecrest studio. If you're coming from the South Miami hospital district, we're on your way home.

After the surgeon, before the surgery — or instead of it

South Miami patients often find us at one of three moments:

  • After a diagnosis — an X-ray shows a curve, and "come back in six months" doesn't feel like a plan. Curve-specific therapy gives you something to do while you watch.
  • Trying to avoid fusion — the Schroth Method's primary goal is stopping curve progression; studies show it pairs especially well with bracing.
  • After spinal surgery — regaining strength, mobility, and confidence post-fusion, with a therapist who understands the instrumented spine.

What makes Upright different

  • Scoliosis is the specialty — Schroth-certified (BSPTS), wall bars and all
  • A practice led by a board-certified Orthopedic Clinical Specialist — every session a private one-on-one with your therapist
  • Dry needling, cupping, and manual therapy integrated when pain needs faster relief
  • English, Spanish, and Portuguese
  • Transparent pricing with superbills for out-of-network reimbursement (details)

Common questions

I was just told I need a fusion. Is therapy still worth it?

That's a conversation with your surgeon — but many patients use a structured Schroth program while deciding, and prehab strength pays off either way. Bring your imaging; we'll be straight with you about what therapy can and can't do for your curve.

Can I come during a workday?

We're 10 minutes down US-1 from South Miami and open 10am–6pm weekdays — many adult patients book around work.

Getting started

Start with a one-hour evaluation

Send your X-rays ahead if you can, wear something that shows your spine, and bring your brace if you have one. You'll leave your first visit understanding your curve — and with the start of a plan.
