Are you a teen suffering from scoliosis?

In 90 percent of cases, scoliotic curves are mild and do not require active treatment[1]. Non-operative treatment is preferred, including periodic observation, pain relievers and physical therapy. It is very important to monitor curves in an adolescent patient, to prevent the progression of the pathology. Surgical treatment is indicated for patients in whom the conservative approach has failed. The goal of surgical treatment is to correct the curve and to prevent the curve from progressing by fusing the spine at the optimum degree of safety for the correction of the deformity.
