Not every Scoliosis requires Surgery. Scoliosis is of different types. Usually Functional or Postural Scoliosis gets corrected by experts hands trained on Manual Medicine by qualified Physiotherapist. This is why you need to gets assessed by the same. Schroth Exercise is wonderful in correcting Scoliosis. Many a times, a Lateral Shift of Spine and pelvis is incorrectly assumed to be a Scoliosis which can lead to unnecessary harassment and cost expenses. Do not be in a hurry, take your time, unless you have Severe Deformity, associated with Respiratory Problem, surgery is not recommended. I hope you find a good solution out of mine.
