Correction of a 30° Thoracolumbar Scoliosis with ScoliBrace® and ScoliBalance®
At age 16, the patient presented at the ScoliCare clinic as Mom had noticed the posture changing especially when the patient bent forward. The patient was diagnosed with Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS) with a 30° thoracolumbar curve. At the time of diagnosis, the patient was Risser 4 and had almost completed growth. He was prescribed a full-time ScoliBrace® protocol combined with the ScoliBalance® rehabilitation program.
Results
- Significant Curve Reduction Within 6 Months: After 6 months of brace wear, his curve reduced from 30 degrees to 10 degrees (67% reduction).
- Improved Function and Posture: His posture greatly improved, and he was able to continue to engage in physical activity throughout the treatment.
- Long-Term Stability: At 2 years and 3 months, the patient remains stable at 10 degrees. He wears the brace 1 night a week and continues ScoliBalance® exercises 2-3 times a week.
NB: Results vary from case to case. Our commitment is to recommend the most appropriate treatment based on the patient’s individual case.
