History of Physiotherapy Scoliosis Specific Exercises and Bracing with Dr. Jean Claude de Mauroy The specific exercises for the treatment of scoliosis date back to the origins of the Lyon Method, 200 years ago. Currently the exercises are grouped into different validated methods. It is possible to describe the specific mechanical actions to try to avoid confusion. Recent advances in scoliosis scoliogeny are changing the paradigm of physiotherapy for scoliosis less than 25°

In 1973, Dr. de Mauroy was still a medical student at the “Centre des Massues”, world famous for scoliosis treatment. He met Dr. Stagnara who entrusted him with his thesis on infantile scoliosis. MD in 1975, he became head of a department of 36 beds for paediatric orthopaedics.
With Dr. Stagnara, Dr. de Mauroy co-founded the Outpatient and Documentation department of the Centre des Massues. When Dr. Stagnara retired, he created with his successor Dr Picault, the European Spine Center at the Clinique du Parc.
