Twists: Lower lumbar twists such as Jathara Parivartanasana should be minimized, if not avoided, for lumbar scoliosis, OR, should only be done in direction, which does not emphasize the curve.
As for Thoracic twists, my reading is that when twisting toward the concave side, that should be more of a lengthening, and when twisting towards the convex side, it should definitely be a lengthening, strengthening, then twisting.
