Seas program

The SEAS Accreditation Programme is a path that takes the participants step by step to deeper and certified knowledge of the SEAS approach

Topics of SEAS Level 1

The course (3 days) includes the basic teaching of the SEAS approach:

  • SEAS approach
  • SEAS clinical assessment
  • Active self-correction in coronal, horizontal and sagittal planes
  • SEAS exercises
  • Scoliosis Manager
  • Clinical cases

Topics of the SEAS Level 2

The participant must have been Level 1 certified at least 6 months prior to the Level 2 course.

The course (3 days) includes the advanced stage of treatment for scoliosis:

  • SEAS self-correction combined movements
  • Evolution of the complexity of the exercises and the complexity of self-correction
  • Simplified self-correction for application in daily life
  • The spinopelvic sagittal alignment
  • SEAS treatment of sagittal alignment pathologies: hyperkyphosis dorsal, dorso-lumbar kyphosis.
  • SEAS treatment of adult deformities
  • Screening for scoliosis
  • Clinical cases

SOSORT GUIDELINES

ISICO, in its approach to the conservative treatment of scoliosis, is consistent with the SOSORT guidelines of Orthopaedic and Rehabilitation treatment of idiopathic scoliosis during growth in all passages, starting from the clinical assessment to physiotherapy treatment with the SEAS exercises, up to treatment with a brace.

Hence, the SEAS principles can be applied appropriately according to the objectives and purposes for which they were defined and developed, only in a context consistent with these guidelines.

At the end of the SEAS courses, the participants are asked to sign a statement that only those who are consistent and in line with these SOSORT guidelines in their daily clinical practice can publicly declare (eg on brochures, website etc.) that they apply the SEAS approach to their patients, furthermore being conscious that the SEAS accreditations are valid and can be obtained with a final examination only for those who have declared that their approach to scoliosis is in association with these guidelines.
