Brief Summary
This is a second study in a series of 3 studies. The first study assessed exercise compliance of scoliosis patients (adults and children). This study will look at different strategies to improve exercise compliance after a patient has completed an intensive course of treatment at Scoliosis SOS Clinic. It will be a randomised control trial. The control group will receive the regular exercise schedule that is created for the patients at the clinic, there will be two intervention groups, one using the exercise schedule with a diary and one using the exercise schedule with a mobile application. Compliance will be monitored through a questionnaire at their first and second check-up appointments which will take place every 3 months for a patient under the age of 18 and every 6 months for a patient who is 18 years old or over.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (1)
The amount of hours per week exercised on average
Over the past 3 months, on average, how many hours per week do you spend on your scoliosis-specific exercises? is the question that will be asked.
3 Months
Study Arms (3)
Control Group / Group 1
NO INTERVENTIONThis group will receive their personalised exercise schedule after treatment as per routine treatment at the clinic.
Group 2
EXPERIMENTALThis group will receive their personalised exercise schedule after treatment as per routine treatment at the clinic as well as a pre-formatted diary for them to fill out.
Group 3
EXPERIMENTALThis group will receive their personalised exercise schedule after treatment as per routine treatment at the clinic as well as a link to download the free ScolioGold App on to their mobile from the clinic.
Interventions
The mobile application will include a list of the specific exercises that the patient has to complete on a daily basis. It will have a start/stop button which the patient presses at the beginning and the end of each time that they complete their home exercise programme. This will get logged on to their application which can be accessed by the researcher to monitor home exercise compliance.
The pre-formatted diary will prompt the date, start time, end time and a list exercises that the patient has completed that day that the patient will be requested to fill out.
