Scoliosis: Prevention

 
Medical Encyclopedia: Scoliosis: Prevention

There is no known way to prevent the development of scoliosis. Progression of scoliosis may be prevented through bracing or surgery.

Exercise and physical fitness are of paramount importance for all individuals affected with scoliosis. They not only work to maintain flexibility and health, but decrease the likelihood of osteoporosis, which in these individuals, can be extremely debilitating.

— Liz Meszaros
