I highly recommend Schroth Spinal Physical Therapy of NJ to anyone seeking relief from scoliosis. I tried PT, yoga for scoliosis, and a personal trainer while searching for a Schroth therapist and none of them worked for me. I was convinced that Schroth would  be the best approach, simply because it makes sense. SSPT of NJ has far exceeded my hopes and expectations.

Deirdre has worked miracles with my back! She is highly skilled in assessing your needs and tailoring treatment and exercises to meet them and her knowledge and passion for Schroth keeps you motivated. I actually look forward to going!

At 68, I know that my curve will not be completely corrected. However, I have seen it reduced significantly and have learned exercises to make adjustments to manage the pain on my own. I am eternally indebted to Deirdre and SSPT of NJ for sharing their expertise with me so that I may look forward to living a relatively pain-free life.

Our experience with Schroth Spinal Physical Therapy of Coastal Jersey has been nothing short of exceptional. After my daughter was diagnosed with scoliosis a year ago, we began treatment with Beth Ege using the Schroth method. At first, my daughter was hesitant and not thrilled about starting physical therapy—it was a big adjustment.

We work with Beth Ege, who has worked hard to make a connection with my 13-year-old daughter and tailor the therapy workouts to her specific needs and interests. She worked hard to make sessions more enjoyable for her, mainly because my daughter is not a sports or workout kind of girl. Beth's dedication went beyond the weekly sessions. She asked if she could attend several of our appointments with the orthopedist so that she could help understand bracing options and ensure that everyone was on the same page regarding my daughter's treatment plan. Her level of commitment and collaboration gave us a great deal of peace of mind.

Thanks to Beth, my daughter has made progress—not just physically but emotionally as well. We are incredibly grateful for her ongoing kindness and personalized care and would highly recommend her and Schroth Spinal Physical Therapy to any family navigating a scoliosis diagnosis.

“I can highly recommend Deirdre and Amy. My son was diagnosed with a 20-degree Cobb angle a year ago at the age of 15. While not severe, we were told by doctors that because boys’ spines continue to grow, it would be best to monitor the situation for a couple of years and do everything we could to prevent his curvature from developing further. Unfortunately, we received mixed advice on how to do that, with one doctor recommending chiropractic intervention while the other recommending physical therapy, but with no additional guidance. Through online research I discovered that the Schroth method of physical therapy was the best intervention for scoliosis, and located Amy and Deirdre. My son’s work with them has been transformative. A year later, not only has his curvature not progressed, but his latest x-ray showed a 16-degree Cobb angle—possibly within a margin of error, but to a mom, a margin in the right direction! 

Amy and Deirdre are consummate professionals: they are well trained, knowledgeable about all sorts of things, always on time, and very flexible with scheduling. (Because we do not have anyone trained in the Schroth method in our area, we drive 45 minutes each way from PA and appreciate that we can have evening appointments.) They also accept my insurance and I receive 50% coverage for each visit. In sum, I cannot sing their praises enough. There are very few PTs trained in this method across the U.S. I feel extremely lucky that they bring so much knowledge and care to their practice and that they have been able to help my son function pain free, while at the same time helping arrest further curvature through their work. The exercise training they have given my son will help him for the rest of his life.”

Our daughter was born with Spina Bifida Myelomeningocele, Bi-Lateral clubbed feet, Arnold Chiari Malformation Type II, and Hydrocephalus.

During infancy she also developed a slight case of torticollis. In recent years, she developed a worsening case of scoliosis due to growth spurts, her NTD, and the disadvantages of Covid lockdown and virtual learning.
We have been working with Amy Higgins since our daughter was eight months old through early intervention.

My daughter is now 13 and Amy is a constant that we always turn to for physical therapy and advice for our daughter’s care. We have always had an excellent experience with Amy. Amy is professional, and dedicates herself to continuing education and making sure that she always brings the best care and resources to her patients. Amy is also very diverse in her experience, and has a network of providers, professionals, and vendors that she works with closely to support her patients on their wellness journey. We cannot say enough wonderful things about Amy and Deirdre, and how thankful we are they came together to create this practice and the difference it’s made in our daughter’s care. Our daughter would not be where she is today without Amy’s help and services along the way.
