What you will learn in this workshop:

  1. Introduction to the Czech SPS System and its principles
  2. Experiential training on the technique and the improvements it offers

Scoliosis is a condition where the vertebrae deviate to the left or right from the vertical axis, presenting as a “C-shaped” or “S-shaped” curvature, often accompanied by vertebral rotation. In daily life, the spine in individuals with scoliosis is easily affected by gravity, prolonged sitting or poor posture, leading to misalignment and twisting. This can impact overall posture, resulting in uneven shoulders, pelvic tilt or waist asymmetry. In more severe cases, it may cause progressive back pain, impaired cardiopulmonary function, and even pose significant health risks.

Breakthrough Against Gravity:

The SPS (Spiral Stabilization) technique is a training method that promotes spinal stability by activating the body’s spiral muscle chains. This technique encourages longitudinal traction on the spine and engages active elongation of the paravertebral muscles, helping to counteract the compressive forces of gravity on the spine and achieving an “anti-gravity decompression” effect. It is particularly suitable for individuals with scoliosis.

Research Evidence

Recent clinical studies published in 2025 have shown positive effects of the SPS Spiral Stabilization technique in promoting spinal stability and improving posture-related issues associated with scoliosis.

One study (Zeng et al., 2025) showed that the SPS group achieved significantly greater improvements in Cobb angle, trunk rotation angle, clavicle angle, and self-image compared to traditional core stabilization exercises.

Another study (Lu et al., 2025) found that both SPS and the Schroth method outperformed traditional training, with more pronounced reductions in Cobb angle and trunk rotation.

faq

What is Spiral Stabilization System (SPS)?

Spiral Stabilization (SPS) is a scientific-based exercise method designed to stabilize the spine. It focuses on activating spiral muscle chains throughout the body to create an upward force that elongates the spine, improving posture and enabling pain-free movement. The system's methods and outcomes are supported by clinical research and established principles of biomechanics, muscle activation, and rehabilitation science.

How does Spiral Stabilization work?

SPS works by engaging specific spiral muscle chains, such as the latissimus dorsi and gluteus maximus, to create a dynamic stabilizing "corset" around the torso. This activation generates an elongating force on the spine, which helps to increase the space between vertebrae. The exercises employ spiraling movement patterns that stretch and strengthen muscles, improve coordination, and stimulate adaptation between agonist and antagonist muscle groups. This process corrects muscle imbalances, improves postural alignment, and helps distribute loads more evenly across the body's major joints.

Is Spiral Stabilization a scientifically proven method?

Yes, Spiral Stabilization (SPS) is presented as a scientifically proven and clinically applied method, supported by both formal research and extensive practical application.

The method is explicitly described as a scientific-based exercise, with its principles and results backed by clinical research, biomechanics, and rehabilitation science. Its effectiveness has been examined in multiple randomized controlled trials. Furthermore, peer-reviewed studies have repeatedly demonstrated that SPS can significantly reduce pain and improve physical function, with outcomes comparable to other established therapeutic protocols like the McKenzie method.

The credibility of the method is further reinforced by its origins and widespread adoption. It was developed over several decades, beginning in 1979, by Dr. Richard Smíšek, a Czech medical doctor specializing in myoskeletal and rehabilitative medicine. His extensive clinical work with patients suffering from spinal pain was the foundation for the system's development. This clinical-first approach is reflected in its practical success and integration into healthcare systems. For example, the SPS method is well-established in Germany, where it has been used for over 20 years and is covered by some medical insurance plans. It is also widely used in its country of origin, the Czech Republic, and has a growing presence in the United Kingdom, Ireland, and other nations through a network of clinics and certified practitioners.

Is Spiral Stabilization effective for children and teenagers?

Yes, SPS is used for both children and adults and has shown significant effectiveness in treating conditions common in adolescents. For example, in cases of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis (AIS), treatment with SPS has been shown to help a high percentage of patients avoid surgery.

What conditions can Spiral Stabilization help with?

Clinical research has demonstrated the effectiveness of SPS for a variety of conditions. It is commonly used in the conservative management of spinal disorders and can be beneficial for:

  • Herniated Discs & Disc Protrusion
  • Scoliosis
  • Chronic Pain
  • General Spinal Diseases (Prevention and Rehabilitation)
  • Posture Issues, including rounded shoulders, hunchback, flared ribs, and pelvic tilt
  • Pelvic Floor Conditions
  • Postoperative Recovery
  • Postpartum Rehabilitation
