    I just wanted to highlight your attention to the great discussion 'SpineCor vs Rigid Brace' that has been going on in the forum side with regards to ‘The effect of rigid versus flexible spinal orthosis on the clinical efficacy and acceptance of the patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis‘ study.

    To follow up on my previous blog post “Scoliosis Surgery – Is it a cure?“, I had to write this after reading this a paper [21] stating the following.

    “It is very difficult to know precisely what the natural history of untreated surgical idiopathic scoliosis is, because most patients have surgical treatment of their curves when the Cobb measurement exceeds 50°.

    Some insist that surgery is a cure to Adolescent Idiopathic Scoliosis (AIS). Personally, I believe saying that surgery is a cure for scoliosis is equivalent to saying that insulin is a cure for Type 1diabetes. Insulin will merely keep this category of diabetics alive, but does not correct or rid these individuals of their condition. The underlying problem for a Type 1 diabetic is that the cells which produce insulin in their body are dead, hence by administering insulin, you are merely “managing” ...

    After searching the internet and reading different forums and websites I have come to the conclusion that there may be a need for a new scoliosis forum.

    Now, why would I ever think that when there are plenty of scoliosis forums around?

    True, but I feel that there is a demand for a forum that would be focused on the non-surgical management and treatment of scoliosis curves, also sharing thoughts and experiences of early intervention of scoliosis. A lot of parents and ...

    For easy reference I have designed a Google map to illustrate the location of the clinics that are certified by CLEAR Institute® to provide scoliosis treatment. Use the link to access the map to see the clinics that are labeled: CLEAR Scoliosis Center™. Currently there are only clinics in United States and Singapore, but I am sure that we will soon see more clinics spread across the world.
