Ce protocole s'applique aux patients âgés de 10 à 17 ans présentant une scoliose idiopathique, un angle de Cobb de 10° à 20° et un signe de Risser de 0 à 3 — une courbure vertébrale légère chez un individu squelettiquement immature, où l'arrêt de la progression constitue la priorité clinique déterminante.
La prise en charge à ce stade est centrée sur les exercices physiothérapeutiques spécifiques à la scoliose — un programme d'exercices spécialisé ciblant la correction vertébrale en trois dimensions. Le protocole complet décrit la structure et les exigences dans leur intégralité.

It is recommended not to apply bracing to treat patients with curves below 15° ± 5° Cobb, unless otherwise justified in the opinion of a clinician specialized in conservative treatment of spinal deformities.
Under 10° of scoliosis, the diagnosis of scoliosis should not be made.
Physiotherapeutic scoliosis-specific exercises are recommended as the first step to treat idiopathic scoliosis to prevent/limit progression of the deformity and bracing.
It is recommended that physiotherapeutic scoliosis-specific exercises follow SOSORT Consensus and are based on auto-correction in 3D, training in ADL, stabilizing the corrected posture, and patient education.
The study found that scoliosis-specific active self-correction and task-oriented exercises, consistent with SEAS approach, improved Cobb angles by 5.3° at skeletal maturity and that traditional exercises were associated with stable curves.
In the intention-to-treat analysis, on average, the largest Cobb angle decreased by 1.2° in the Schroth and increased by 2.3° in the control group over 6 months, and this difference was statistically significant.
