Is there a prescription I can use for scoliosis?

The protocols within our acupuncture for low back pain will get you started in the right direction. Generally appropriate diagnostic based treatment (see “treating the cause vs. the symptoms”), coupled with tuina and cupping will get the best results.

I'd recommend, in addition to acupuncture and tuina, yin or therapeutic yoga. Strengthening the muscles in the back, particularly the deeper muscles (erector spinae) can help to alleviate or minimize discomfort from scoliosis.
