SCHROTH METHOD WOMEN'S WELLNESS RETREAT: CHICAGO
For women with scoliosis looking to reduce back pain, stop curve progression, & reclaim movement!
Stop letting scoliosis put you on the sidelines. You can be proactive!
A 3-night, small-group scoliosis retreat in Chicago where you’ll finally learn exactly what your body needs—and how to Exercise correctly for your curve.
Personalized, curve-specific Schroth training (not generic exercises)
Hands-on coaching so you know you’re doing it right
Only 6 participants for individualized attention, women only.
Finally - A Scoliosis Exercise Plan That’s Actually Made For You
Personalized. Research-Backed. With Everything You Need To Get Started.
You’ve tried everything:
General Physical Therapy that barely scratched the surface
Chiropractic that gave temporary relief, never treating the root cause
Massage that helped for a moment… until everything tightened right back up
Stretching and core strengthening
And the worst: being told to “wait and see if it gets worse.”
Most Importantly:
You're Still stuck in the “wait and see” cycle... while your curve keeps getting worse.
Meanwhile, your scoliosis symptoms haven't gone anywhere.
The pain is still there — maybe even getting worse
Your posture or alignment is starting to visibly shift
Whether it’s age, hormones, or watching your child’s curve progress… that fear of surgery is always in the back of your mind.

"I Learned The Proper Exercises For My Curve."
"Best weekend seminar ever!
I learned a lot, even though I had been doing Katie’s classes regularly. I learned the proper Exercises for my curve. If you’re on the fence on this bc of the price, I assure you it is well worth it! Bonus, I met 4 ladies and we all determined our curve and got to know each other. We talked about our struggles which people who have regular back pain vs our pain and how it affects our bodies. The next seminar is in June and two more after that this year!"

Frequently Asked Questions
Who is The Schroth Method Women's Wellness Retreat for?
This retreat is designed for women ages 18+ with scoliosis.
Why women only?
Because it creates a more:
-Comfortable environment
-Open conversations
-Supportive group dynamic
Many women with scoliosis share similar experiences, concerns, and goals—this allows for a more connected and personalized experience.

Transportation
Meals
Chicago experiences + spa
No planning, no logistics—just show up and focus on your body
Is this retreat really customized for my scoliosis curve?
Yes. After you join, you’ll submit screenshots of your x-ray or written imaging report, plus pictures of your standing posture. This allows us to assess your curve pattern and alignment. Based on that, we’ll guide you through which exercises to focus on and how to adjust your posture using the Schroth Method during the weekend.
What if I’ve had scoliosis for years?
That’s actually who this retreat is built for. Even if your curve has been stable or slowly progressing for decades, we help you strengthen, realign, and stabilize your spine with movement strategies that work — even in adulthood.
How is this different from general PT, chiropractic, or massage?
Most of those focus on:
👉 Temporary relief
👉 General movement
👉 Passive treatment
This is different.
You’ll learn:
-Exactly what your curve needs
-How to correct it yourself
-How to take care of your spine independently
No more relying on constant appointments just to feel better for a few days.
What if I’m not “fit enough” or worried I can’t keep up?
This is not a bootcamp.
Everything is:
-Adjusted to your level
-Guided step-by-step
-Focused on quality, not intensity
You’ll be supported the entire time.
Is the Schroth Method research-based?
Yes. The Schroth Method is backed by decades of scoliosis-specific research, and everything in the retreat is informed by both science and results from hundreds of scoliosis clients.
Why is the retreat an investment?
Because it replaces the cycle most people are stuck in:
Massage. Chiropractic. General PT. Surgery.
Over and over again.
All adding up over months… even years…
For temporary relief.
This retreat is different.
👉 You’re not just getting sessions—you’re getting individualized, curve-specific guidance
👉 You’ll be in a small group of only 6, so you get the attention you actually need
👉 You’ll have time to ask questions, get corrections, and truly understand your body
This isn’t rushed care.
This is personalized support designed around you.
And most importantly:
👉 You’re learning how to take care of your spine yourself
👉 You’re building skills you’ll use for life
👉 You’re no longer dependent on constant appointments just to feel better
This is where you stop cycling through temporary fixes…
…and start taking real control of your scoliosis.
Can I bring a spouse, family member, or friend?
Yes—they’re welcome to stay with you at the hotel. However, to respect the privacy and experience of other participants: They are not allowed to attend training sessions or group activities
This ensures everyone feels comfortable and fully supported during the retreat.
Is the Schroth Method Women's Wellness Retreat HSA/FSA Eligible?
Yes, you may use an HSA or FSA card to pay for the retreat. However, insurance is not billed or accepted.
Hurry! Early-Bird Pricing Ends April 30th!
