What is Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine.

The spine will form a S or C shape when scoliosis is present.

It can appear at any age, however often appears in children aged between 10-16.

Often the cause is unknown!

Scoliosis doesn’t always lead to pain and back problems throughout your life - a patient of ours proved this today! 

The picture shows the patient’s MRI scan. A clear curvature is seen meaning she has a scoliosis.

We have worked on stability and strengthening exercises with the patient, to ensure she lives pain free.

SCOLIOSIS DOESN’T ALWAYS MEAN A LIFE OF PAIN!
