Professional Development Update

Members of our MSK team recently attended an intensive course on scoliosis management led by Kat Lake, focusing on a Schroth-based approach to management. A globally recognised physiotherapeutic approach designed to improve posture, reduce pain, and support long-term spinal health in individuals with scoliosis.

This training provided valuable insights into evidence-informed assessment and tailored exercise interventions, further enhancing our team’s skills in delivering care to patients with complex spinal conditions.

We would like to express our sincere thanks to Katrina Lake for her expert guidance and to the for hosting this highly informative and engaging learning event.

We look forward to integrating this knowledge into our clinical practice to continue delivering high-quality, patient-centred care.
