Another successful Scoli Camp! 💙

A huge thank you to all the amazing teens who joined us and made the day so special. It was wonderful to see everyone coming together, sharing experiences, learning, and supporting one another.

A heartfelt thank you to our scoliosis physios for their knowledge, enthusiasm, and dedication, and to our incredible scoliosis advocates for all their amazing help and support.

We’re also so grateful to the parents who stayed and took the time to share their own stories and experiences with each other. It was lovely to see parents connecting, supporting one another, and knowing they’re not alone on this journey. 💙

A special thank you to our wonderful Pilates teacher for leading such a great class and helping everyone get moving! 🧘‍♀️✨

And, of course, a very special thank you to Cookie 🐾 for doing such an amazing job as our therapy dog and bringing plenty of comfort, smiles, and cuddles to the day!

Thank you to everyone who helped make this camp another success. We’re already looking forward to the next one! 💙✨

June is Scoliosis Awareness Month!

We wanted to showcase one of our incredible teen’s artwork. The artwork highlights Siún’s own journey with scoliosis.

If you can make time to read through Siún’s work you will not be disappointed. For anyone working with people with scoliosis, for anyone with scoliosis or for anyone with a family member with scoliosis we think that Siún has perfectly captured what it feels like to go on the journey of conservative management of scoliosis.

So far Siún is defying the odds with the management of her own scoliosis. She is wearing her brace, completing her own exercises at home and regularly attending our clinic.

Well done Siún! Keep up the tremendous work and thank you for continually inspiring us all!

Meet Our Scoliosis Team
At McGowan Physio, we’re passionate about helping people with scoliosis feel stronger, more confident, and supported throughout every stage of their journey.

Our specialist team combines evidence-based care with a personalised approach, creating treatment plans that are tailored to each individual’s goals and lifestyle.

Our physiotherapists have advanced training in PSSE (Physio Scoliosis Specific Exercise) from BSPTS, and work with children, adolescents and adults; Whether they’re newly diagnosed, wearing a brace, preparing for surgery, recovering after surgery, or managing scoliosis long term.

We believe that education is just as important as treatment. By empowering patients and their families with the knowledge and skills to understand the condition, we help them take an active role in their own care while working closely with the wider healthcare team to achieve the best possible outcomes.

Our specialist team includes physiotherapists Niamh, Shane, Anne and Garett, along with our specialist Pilates instructor, Daniella, who is also trained in the Rigo Concept for scoliosis management. Together, we bring a wealth of expertise and a shared passion for delivering the highest standard of scoliosis care.

Feel free to ask any questions you may have for us.
