Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine. Here's a concise overview:
Symptoms:
• Back Pain: Discomfort or pain, often due to muscle strain.
• Rib Hump: A hump on one side of the back when bending forward.
• Spinal Curvature: Noticeable S or C-shaped curve in the spine.
• Uneven Shoulders: One shoulder higher or more prominent than the other.
• Asymmetrical Waist: An uneven waistline or hips.
Causes:
• Idiopathic Scoliosis: This is the most common type and occurs without an identifiable cause. It typically develops during adolescence, with no clear genetic or environmental factors.
• Congenital Scoliosis: Present at birth, congenital scoliosis results from abnormal spinal development in the womb.
• Neuromuscular Scoliosis: Neuromuscular conditions like cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, or spinal cord abnormalities can lead to scoliosis.
• Traumatic Scoliosis: Spinal injuries or trauma can result in scoliosis as a secondary condition.
Treatment we provide:
• Assessment: The first step is a thorough assessment of the individual's spinal curvature, overall posture, and any associated pain or discomfort.
• Pain Reduction: Physiotherapy can assist in reducing pain & discomfort associated with scoliosis by addressing muscle imbalances & tension.
• Exercise Programs: Our physiotherapist designs customized exercise programs tailored to your specific condition. These programs typically include a combination of stretching and strengthening exercises to increase flexibility and reduce muscle tightness.
