- 13-year-old female
- Initial Cobb angles 41º/47°
- Risser 0
This young girl’s AIS diagnosis came very suddenly. Within days she consulted with both an orthopedic surgeon who recommended surgery and with Dr. Marc who recommended a Chêneau-Gensingen brace and our Schroth program. At the time, her scoliosis measured 41º and 47º. Posturally, improvement was obvious almost immediately post-treatment. Her most recent x-ray (after 11 months) shows an incredible REDUCTION of scoliosis by 13º and 29º. Her scoliosis curves now measure 28º and 18º. Now a Risser 3, she is about to be fit in her 2nd brace and obviously we are very optimistic that she could see even more improvement.
