Course Overview: DNS-Based Scoliosis Therapy Training

Scoliosis is a complex spinal condition that demands a specialized, evidence-based therapeutic approach. This course provides training in Dynamic Neuromuscular Stabilization (DNS), equipping practitioners with the skills to perform precise assessments and develop individualized therapy plans for patients with scoliosis. The program emphasizes a deep understanding of scoliosis pathophysiology, differentiation of postural deviations, and comprehensive management strategies —including conservative care, brace treatment, and pre-/post-operative rehabilitation.

Gain insight into ontogenesis and the developmental formation of the spine

Apply DNS functional tests to assess scoliosis and asymmetrical posture

Develop hands-on techniques to enhance manual skills for treating patients with asymmetries

Understand the principles and application of brace treatment in scoliosis management

Design and implement corrective exercises using DNS developmental positions:

Undifferentiated and differentiated positions

Movement flow strategies

Facilitate body awareness training for improved motor control

Prague School Registration Fee

You must complete either the DNS A or the DNS Pediatrics Part 1 course before registering for this course.

PS Registration Fee: 100 EUR

Prague School registration fee helps to support DNS scientific activities, to collect new video/photo material, to develop the DNS handouts and publishing activities, to present the DNS system at the scientific congresses, and to present the DNS concept online.

It is not a payment for the course. Please contact the local organizer to secure your enrollment in the course and make sure that the course is not full, prior to paying Prague School registration fee. Once your PS fee is completed, your registration will automatically be sent to the course organizer. After that, payment of course fees can be made with the organizer. The organizer reserves the right to request proof of licensure.

The Prague School registration fee is non-refundable.

Without your online registration and PS fee payment you will not be permitted to attend any DNS course nor will you receive the Prague School Certificate of Attendance; thus you cannot take the DNS test and you will not be allowed to register for later advanced courses.

Thank you for your understanding
