Just some other considerations for you.

Scoliosis Treatment Options for Children and Adults – bit.ly Children and adults require different approaches for the treatment of scoliosis. The range of scoliosis treatment options can include braces, physical therapy and exercise programs, and for severe cases, scoliosis surgery. In addition to age considerations, the treatment options are also based on the degree of spine curvature deviation, the level of pain and medical improvement goals. This scoliosis video, presented by Drs. Thomas Kula and John Lettice, covers the following informative topics: scoliosis surgery and non-surgical treatments for children and adults, selecting a spinal surgery program and an inspiring patient success story. Transcript: Normally, if you look at the spine from the front view like this, all these vertebrae should line up and the spine should be straight. You can see here that there are actually two curves; one in the middle part of the back, the thoracic spine, and one in the lower part of the back, the lumbar spine. Typically, any curvature that deviates for more than 10 degrees is considered to be scoliosis. In most of the patients, the curve is not progressive and we just observe the patient to see if the curve is going to progress. When the curve gets to be more than about 20 or 25 degrees and the patient still has growth potential, we may then recommend the use of a brace in order to prevent that curve from getting worse while the spine is still growing. When the curve gets to be more than about 45 degrees, the curve is beyond the …
