June is National Scoliosis Awareness Month!

​What do you know about Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a curvature of the spine that affects about 2-3% of people across the world, and the United Nations estimates there are about 8 billion people worldwide. Roughly speaking, that is about 240,000,000 people! Think about it, that is a lot of people!

Scoliosis is most often developed and discovered during growth in childhood or adolescence (ages 10-18), although, treatment and monitoring may be lifelong.

Awareness, early diagnosis and treatment of scoliosis are the keys to help stop progression of the curve!
