Dear colleagues,
for your patients and their families (and for other colleagues as well) you may share the following links:

https://sajp.co.za/index.php/sajp/article/view/1573
https://sajp.co.za/index.php/sajp/article/view/1569

Especially, the guidebook may be of help to reduce your time for giving advice when patients read the book (available online without charge) prior to visiting you!

Another link is to a vid I have produced (just for a first try): I would like to ask you whether you would find it reasonable if I would (step by step) produce improved versions of this vid, of the Evidence presentation and of the brace presentation of the basic course. just have a look:

Schroth’s Textbook of Scoliosis and Other Spinal Deformities AI Sheet


02/20

I would like to share an interesting issue: A paper submitted by myself has been denied publication. As the reason for this the reviewer's criticism was specified. However, the reviewers did not suggest rejection...
Therefore, I was contacting the editor 3 times by e-mail and twice by phone but I did not succeed (no answer).
As I had successfully published with this journal before the unscientific behavior of the editors can only be explained in one way: They were obviously advised by members of societies supported by the spinal implant industry not to accept papers from an author with a critical attitude towards surgery in spinal deformities any longer. See yourself....

Dear friends,

hope this e-mail finds you well! As you know last year the 70th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China came in our way, this year, due to the Corona epidemy, we will have to postpone the meeting another time…..

we will now make a third attempt for 2021 which would be the centennial meeting of the Schroth method. Now this will give us enough time for (a) checking the epidemic / pandemic situation and (b) for a good planning. Maybe we should think of making it a 2 and a half day meeting (Friday to Sunday) instead of one and a half (date to be determined).
We will do our very best!

The Academy's Bejing conference will be postponed:
Dear Dr. Weiss, 

I'm sorry to tell you that I just received a notice from my superiors that this year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and Beijing will hold a series of activities to celebrate National Day.
Especially near the National Day, foreign-related activities are difficult to hold, the entry and exit of Beijing procedures are very troublesome. 
Our meeting in September involves a lot of foreign personnel. For foreign participants, visa and entry may be affected. Considering the effect and quality of the meeting, it is the best choice to postpone the meeting to next year (the specific time will be decided later). 

Best regards.

The Academy regrets that our plans cannot be fulfilled this year. Wishing all the best.

bildschirmfoto-2017-01-13-um-07-40-37 It has been decided to introduce two new terms: PSSR (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Rehabilitation) and PSSB (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Bracing). The reason why is that currently the word 'specific' is watered down. While with Schroth it was always meant as to be 'pattern specific' today many approaches are called 'specific' just because a method is used for scoliosis treatment even though a pattern specific approach is not described. Therefore, when following a certain pattern specific correction routine like in the Schroth Best Practice Program or with the Gensingen (Schroth) Brace we use the term PSSR and PSSB respectively.

For instance we’ve see dozens of different 3D printed medical implants, as well as 3D models used for surgical preparation, and of course we also have seen the vast array of external 3D printed devices such as braces and prostheses……

Chinese Turn to Customized 3D Printed Braces for Scoliosis Treatment
The medical applications for 3D printing continue to expand, encompassing numerous areas within both internal and external medicine. For instance we’ve see dozens of different 3D printed medical implants, as well as 3D models used for surgical preparation, and of course we also have seen the vast array of external 3D printed devices such as braces and prostheses……

I would like to share an interesting issue: A paper submitted by myself has been denied publication. As the reason for this the reviewer's criticism was specified. However, the reviewers did not suggest rejection...
Therefore, I was contacting the editor 3 times by e-mail and twice by phone but I did not succeed (no answer).
As I had successfully published with this journal before the unscientific behavior of the editors can only be explained in one way: They were obviously advised by members of societies supported by the spinal implant industry not to accept papers from an author with a critical attitude towards surgery in spinal deformities any longer. See yourself....

Dear friends,

hope this e-mail finds you well! As you know last year the 70th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China came in our way, this year, due to the Corona epidemy, we will have to postpone the meeting another time…..

we will now make a third attempt for 2021 which would be the centennial meeting of the Schroth method. Now this will give us enough time for (a) checking the epidemic / pandemic situation and (b) for a good planning. Maybe we should think of making it a 2 and a half day meeting (Friday to Sunday) instead of one and a half (date to be determined).
We will do our very best!

The Academy's Bejing conference will be postponed:
Dear Dr. Weiss, 

I'm sorry to tell you that I just received a notice from my superiors that this year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and Beijing will hold a series of activities to celebrate National Day.
Especially near the National Day, foreign-related activities are difficult to hold, the entry and exit of Beijing procedures are very troublesome. 
Our meeting in September involves a lot of foreign personnel. For foreign participants, visa and entry may be affected. Considering the effect and quality of the meeting, it is the best choice to postpone the meeting to next year (the specific time will be decided later). 

Best regards.

The Academy regrets that our plans cannot be fulfilled this year. Wishing all the best.

bildschirmfoto-2017-01-13-um-07-40-37 It has been decided to introduce two new terms: PSSR (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Rehabilitation) and PSSB (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Bracing). The reason why is that currently the word 'specific' is watered down. While with Schroth it was always meant as to be 'pattern specific' today many approaches are called 'specific' just because a method is used for scoliosis treatment even though a pattern specific approach is not described. Therefore, when following a certain pattern specific correction routine like in the Schroth Best Practice Program or with the Gensingen (Schroth) Brace we use the term PSSR and PSSB respectively.

hope this e-mail finds you well! As you know last year the 70th anniversary of the People’s Republic of China came in our way, this year, due to the Corona epidemy, we will have to postpone the meeting another time…..

we will now make a third attempt for 2021 which would be the centennial meeting of the Schroth method. Now this will give us enough time for (a) checking the epidemic / pandemic situation and (b) for a good planning. Maybe we should think of making it a 2 and a half day meeting (Friday to Sunday) instead of one and a half (date to be determined).
We will do our very best!

The Academy's Bejing conference will be postponed:
Dear Dr. Weiss, 

I'm sorry to tell you that I just received a notice from my superiors that this year marks the 70th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China, and Beijing will hold a series of activities to celebrate National Day.
Especially near the National Day, foreign-related activities are difficult to hold, the entry and exit of Beijing procedures are very troublesome. 
Our meeting in September involves a lot of foreign personnel. For foreign participants, visa and entry may be affected. Considering the effect and quality of the meeting, it is the best choice to postpone the meeting to next year (the specific time will be decided later). 

Best regards.

The Academy regrets that our plans cannot be fulfilled this year. Wishing all the best.

bildschirmfoto-2017-01-13-um-07-40-37 It has been decided to introduce two new terms: PSSR (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Rehabilitation) and PSSB (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Bracing). The reason why is that currently the word 'specific' is watered down. While with Schroth it was always meant as to be 'pattern specific' today many approaches are called 'specific' just because a method is used for scoliosis treatment even though a pattern specific approach is not described. Therefore, when following a certain pattern specific correction routine like in the Schroth Best Practice Program or with the Gensingen (Schroth) Brace we use the term PSSR and PSSB respectively.

Chinese Turn to Customized 3D Printed Braces for Scoliosis Treatment
The medical applications for 3D printing continue to expand, encompassing numerous areas within both internal and external medicine. For instance we’ve see dozens of different 3D printed medical implants, as well as 3D models used for surgical preparation, and of course we also have seen the vast array of external 3D printed devices such as braces and prostheses……

Therefore, I was contacting the editor 3 times by e-mail and twice by phone but I did not succeed (no answer).
As I had successfully published with this journal before the unscientific behavior of the editors can only be explained in one way: They were obviously advised by members of societies supported by the spinal implant industry not to accept papers from an author with a critical attitude towards surgery in spinal deformities any longer.

Our meeting in September involves a lot of foreign personnel. For foreign participants, visa and entry may be affected. Considering the effect and quality of the meeting, it is the best choice to postpone the meeting to next year (the specific time will be decided later). 

Best regards.

The Academy regrets that our plans cannot be fulfilled this year. Wishing all the best.

bildschirmfoto-2017-01-13-um-07-40-37 It has been decided to introduce two new terms: PSSR (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Rehabilitation) and PSSB (Pattern Specific Scoliosis Bracing). The reason why is that currently the word 'specific' is watered down. While with Schroth it was always meant as to be 'pattern specific' today many approaches are called 'specific' just because a method is used for scoliosis treatment even though a pattern specific approach is not described. Therefore, when following a certain pattern specific correction routine like in the Schroth Best Practice Program or with the Gensingen (Schroth) Brace we use the term PSSR and PSSB respectively.
