There seemed to be very little degeneration with the spine, as well as, limited effect on balance and movement. Although this study was for scoliosis patients 21 years and younger, it provides positive results for the future. As the treatments, surgeries, and medical plans evolve and progress, scoliosis patients both young and old can find a little solace in the long lasting effects. Please find the full article here.
