Lakeland, Fla.-based Scoliosis Treatment Clinic now provides an accelerated care program for patients around the nation.
Here are five insights:
1. The clinic attempts to reduce and stabilize scoliotic curvatures.
2. The Scoliosis Treatment Clinic also focuses on opportunity and hope, addressing the emotional toll scoliosis takes on each patient.
3. The Accelerated Scoliosis Program involves a one-week treatment plan for spinal curvatures 25 degrees or less. Those patients with severe curves will undergo a two-week plan.
4. The program avoids bracing techniques, instead promoting warm-up exercises, adjustment, body weighting and vibrational therapy.
5. Patients undergo the treatment programs at the clinic and then head home with prescribed home exercises.
