Scoliosis treatment and prevention

If a child was diagnosed with scoliosis or any other postural disorder, it is not a reason to consider him/her disabled, urgently treat him/her and register with a specialized physical training group. In most cases, it is possible to do without corsets, medicines and operations, it is just enough to pick up the personalized program of recovery by Bubnovsky’s method in our Centre.

The unique treatment method is aimed at strengthening of various muscle groups of the body and leads to recovery. Please address to the Dr. Bubnovsky’s Centre and recover your child’s health without medicines, corsets and complicated operations!

WHAT IS THE REASON FOR SCOLIOSIS DEVELOPMENT IN CHILDREN AND ADOLESCENTS?

Human posture depends on many factors:

• Bony frame state;
• muscles tone;
• state of the ligamentous apparatus;
• presence of chronic diseases;
• level of physical activity;
• body static and dynamic burden sequence;
• mineral metabolism state in the body.

The posture develops immediately after birth, so it is important from the first days of life to provide children with graduated weight bearing exactly on the region of spine developing in this time period. Many parents make a mistake by promoting walking before the child began to get up on his own or learned to crawl well. Such inadequate burdens contribute to the scoliosis development and postural disorders in children and adolescents. Also the excessive burden is dangerous for the adolescent’s spine within the period from 13 to 16 years. The posture development is also affected by a variety of injuries and diseases associated with the mineral metabolism disorder - rickets, or due to the area of inflammation in the bone tissue - osteomyelitis, spondylitis.

TYPES OF POSTURAL DISORDER

Abnormal posture is the spine’s deviation from the normal axis. Depending on the deviation direction the postural disorder is divided into three types:

• vertical - frontal plane defects (scoliosis, scoliotic posture);
• horizontal - sagittal plane defects (stoop, anterior curvature, hyperlordosis);
• two planes defects (kyphoscoliosis).
• Minor posture defects appear as rapid fatigability of the back muscles, headaches after exercises and other non-specific symptoms. Significant deviations may impair the functionality of the internal organs.

SCOLIOSIS AND SCOLIOSIS DEGREES

Scoliosis is a locomotive system disease manifested through deviation of the spine from the normal axis in the frontal plane, i.e. to the side.

There are 4 degrees of the scoliosis: 1st degree - deviation to 30º, 2nd - 30-60º, 3rd degree - 60-90º, 4th degree - deviation of more than 90º.

Minor deviations from the normal can be successfully eliminated using special exercises at any age.

TREATMENT OF SCOLIOSIS

It is generally accepted that severe posture disorders can respond to the operative measures only, although this is not quite true. Application of Bubnovsky’s method for treatment is prescribed at any degree of the scoliosis and various posture disorders. The personalized exercises on the special training devices can remove the tension of the muscle groups that are constantly filled in pathologically and strengthen those muscles that are responsible for normal posture. Contact the Bubnovsky’s Centre and our specialists will help you resolve any issues related to your posture and posture of your children.
