Specialized care

Spinal deformity care,
built around you.

We are a specialized spinal deformity clinic focused on ScoliCare protocols, utilizing ScoliBrace® custom bracing and ScoliBalance® rehabilitation for scoliosis and kyphosis, supported by Advanced Chiropractic BioPhysics® (CBP®) posture correction.

At Bethesda Scoliosis & Posture, we specialize in the non-surgical evaluation and treatment of spinal conditions including scoliosis, kyphosis, adult spinal deformity, and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. Led by Dr. Daniel Kraus, D.C., our practice focuses on personalized care that helps patients improve spinal alignment, reduce discomfort, and support long-term spinal health.

Our office utilizes the internationally recognized ScoliCare® protocols, a comprehensive approach designed specifically for conservative scoliosis care. These protocols combine detailed assessment, targeted rehabilitation, and specialized bracing to address each patient’s unique spinal curve pattern while working to slow or prevent progression.

Treatment may include ScoliBrace®, a custom 3D corrective brace designed to gently guide the spine toward improved alignment, along with ScoliBalance® Physical Therapy, a specialized exercise program that strengthens spinal support muscles and improves posture and stability.

At Bethesda Scoliosis & Posture, our goal is to provide effective, individualized care that helps patients maintain an active lifestyle and better spinal health.
