- 13-year-old female
- Initial Cobb angles 36º/23º
- Risser 0
After being diagnosed with scoliosis, this Mississippi girl had an updated x-ray taken just two weeks later which showed she had progressed more than 11° in that time! Two weeks later, she arrived at Scoliosis 3DC® for a Schroth program and scoliosis brace scan and fitting. Throughout her care (almost two years at the time of the second x-ray), her curve pattern has changed and she’s grown significantly. This has necessitated three brace changes. What’s important is that in less than two years this girl was able to reverse scoliosis (primary curve reduced by 12°) instead of experiencing progression! Her spinal curves now measure 24º and 21º – a successful scoliosis reversal of an extremely progressive curve! At the time of this post, she was a Risser 3 and actively managing her scoliosis as directed by our team so her risk has reduced significantly.
