case_images: This figure shows the pre and post AP lumbodorsal radiographs. This patient, following 8 office visits in 8 weeks, obtained an apparent Cobb angle reduction of 13  when measured from superior of T6 to inferior of T11.

case_images: The initial standing AP radiograph showed a right thoracic scoliosis of 35 , shown in Figure 1.
case_images: The figure demonstrates the warm-up procedures performed prior to each manipulative treatment. The patient performs a series of exercises, starting front-to-back, side-to-side, clockwise, and counterclockwise motions. All three patients performed these warm-ups at each office visit.

case_images: Figure 4. Following this procedure, a specific isometric exercise was performed on a Pettibon Linked
case_images: The rhomboid pull is demonstrated here in Figure 4. The goal of this exercise is to change the origin and insertion of the isolated rhomboid muscle. This is used in attempts to de-rotate the spine toward the rhomboid.

case_images: This exercise, shown in Figure 5, is designed to isolate the right rhomboid muscle.
case_images: This figure displays comparative AP cervicothoracic views, taken initially and after 20 weeks of treatment. Despite the presence of bony deformity, a Cobb angle reduction from 22  to 14  was still obtained, although the frequency of care was higher than the other 2 cases.
