    The treatment recommended for my son who was diagnosed with Svoliosis at 13 with an 18° curvature, was a back brace and the Schroth method of physical therapy. He dud both, bracing the back with an orthotic (3 braces as he grew) and physical therapy. he is now 16 and the curvature increased to 60° Regardless. I am desperate for help. His growth plate is almost closed and he will be seen by the orthopedic surgeon again in 6 months. If the curve continues to worsen, he was told he will need surgery. He has also developed a sudden underbite, which may or may not be related to the scoliosis. The underbite too will require surgery when my son reaches adulthood. When brought to the attention to an oral surgeon as well as a orthopedic surgeon, both say the two are unrelated. In my opinion, they appear related as far as prevalence, timing, and growth. I would appreciate any suggestions, advice, and information that will help prevent the need for two major, life altering surgeries.

5 of 5 videos of my private lesson w/Jennifer Star 5 of 5 videos of my private lesson w/Jennifer Stark at @spiral_spine . Both arms are moving, but the Lt (the side that doesn’t fire very well) has an extra weight and the Rt (my hypertonic side) has a pinky ball under the upper trap to encourage the muscle to not spasm up during movement. A bridge was added in for stability, and well, you could see that was a bit of a challenge for me. #pilates #scoliosis #spiralspine #bentbutnotbroken #scoliosisawareness #scoliosiswarrior #scoliosisexercise #scoliosisstrong #balancedbody

Do you see how hard I have to concentrate to come out of my scoli and fire the right muscles? *notice that my eyes are closed. 👀 HARD!!! Hmmmm, is it more mental work or physical work? 🧠 💪 #scoliosis #spiralspine #corealign #pilates #balancedbody #bentbutnotbroken #scoliosisawareness #scoliosiswarrior #scoliosisexercise #scoliosisstrong

More complexity is added to challenge my mind and body to not only come out of my curves, but hold my body there. 🔥 💪 🌟 #spiralspine #scoliosis #pilates #corealign #bentbutnotbroken #scoliosisawareness #scoliosiswarrior #scoliosisexercise #scoliosisstrong
