Correction of a Moderate Thoracolumbar Scoliosis Using ScoliNight\u00ae and ScoliBalance\u00ae<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

At age 12, the patient presented to the ScoliCare clinic with a 19\u00b0 progressive thoracolumbar scoliosis and postural asymmetry. She had a history of intermittent lower back pain, a confirmed 12\u00b0 curve at age 8 by the local chiropractor and family doctor, and a family history of spinal deformity. No prior treatment had been provided. X-rays revealed pelvic obliquity, increased thoracic kyphosis (42\u00b0), and skeletal immaturity (Risser 0), indicating high risk for further progression.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to reluctance to wear a full-time brace, she was prescribed a night-time ScoliBrace\u00ae (ScoliNight) for 16 hours per day, a daily ScoliBalance\u00ae program, and home traction with a ScoliRoll\u00ae device.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\"\"\n\n\n\n

Results<\/strong><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Curve Reduction:<\/strong> After 9 months of night-time bracing, out-of-brace X-rays revealed a reduction from 19\u00b0 to 8\u00b0 (58% reduction), and the patient had progressed to Risser 1. Brace wear was then discontinued, and she continued with scoliosis-specific rehabilitation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Postural Improvement: <\/strong>Postural assessment showed improvement in trunk alignment and symmetry, with no evidence of trunk rotation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Long-Term Management:<\/strong> At 26-month follow-up, the patient remained stable and continued with the ScoliBalance\u00ae program and ScoliRoll\u00ae use, to maintain correction and trunk muscle strength. She remains active and pain-free.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

\n
NB: Results vary from case to case. Our commitment is to recommend the most appropriate treatment based on the patient\u2019s individual case.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":33258,"parent":0,"template":"","categories":[207,199,200],"class_list":["post-44511","case_studies","type-case_studies","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-australia-only","category-patients","category-professionals"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\nCase - Juvenille Bracing (12 year old female) – East Phoenix Arizona<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Treatment of scoliosis using the ScoliBalance\u00ae Program in an Adult Female Patient.
