"No matter where you are in your scoliosis experience journey, this course is a MUST. I cannot more highly recommend this to therapsits, orthotist and physicians."

Charl Stenger

"The most useful was the opportunity to discuss cases in your own practice with the team of professionals. Lecturer is a practicing scoliosis specialist with huge experience and willingness to help his younger colleagues to get deeper understanding of the subject. The presentation is a little complicated of course, but who said it would be easy?! I recommend it to all trainers, physical therapy doctors, and rehabilitation therapists."

Lyudmyler Senturk

"I felt more confident because there are less unknowns and I understand better how the condition should or should not progress. Also it was so much fun working and exchanging with the other participants. "

Can you identify yourself with one of the following situations?

You want to help your patients as best as possible

When managing your patients with scoliosis using conventional physiotherapy methodologies, it is apparent that while these may yield a mild benefit, a more targeted approach could optimise the therapeutic process further. By gaining a clearer understanding of the treatment timeline and the specific improvements that can be expected in the future, you could tailor interventions more effectively to enhance your patient's overall therapeutic outcomes, providing more precise and personalised care.

While managing a variety of complex scoliosis cases, your pursuit of delivering optimal care remains a top priority amidst the demands of clinical practice, research, and administrative obligations. The intricate nature of scoliosis treatment can occasionally engender feelings of inundation, prompting reflections on optimising patient care strategies within the constraints of a demanding schedule. Amidst these challenges, the quest for more effective approaches to enhance the treatment outcomes persists, to continual improvement within the clinical practice setting.

You feel you could deepen your knowledge of scoliosis

ABOUT

About the Rigo Concept Course by BSPTS

Dear Physiotherapist, Dear Orthotist,

I am Warren, the owner of NorAlign here in Dubai.

I first met Garikoitz (your course instructor) back in December 2023. We talked a lot about the Rigo Concept and how it improves the confidence and skills of physiotherapists like you in handling patients’ scoliosis conditions.

Based on what the course participants told me, I knew that this concept is a must for every physiotherapist and orthotist who really wants to help his or her patients.

We decided to start a collaboration to make Rigo also available for physiotherapists in Dubai.

The first course was launched in 2023 for 6 physiotherapists – it was fully booked within two weeks.

The feedback was amazing but we had to dismiss many physiotherapists due to a participant limitation. That’s why we decided to host it again in 2024 with 12 open spots. 

If you as a physiotherapist or orthotist , want to deepen your knowledge and skills of treating scoliosis and if you want to make your patients’ lives more joyful, secure your sport right now.

If you act quickly, we may perhaps see each other at our clinic. It would be my pleasure to host you and to share our respective journey in scoliosis. 

I am very much looking forward to this.

Best,

Warren Vincent
Owner NorAlign (course location)

Rigo Concept Course Instructor

1. Specific knowledge on Scoliosis and other spinal disorders

2. The BSPTS-Concept by Rigo. Based on four general principles: Three-dimensional stable postural correction; Expansion Technique; Muscle activation and Integration.
