📚 – Research & Data Update
Dr. Antonacci and the ASC team are compiling new data covering over 126 thoracic and 80 lumbar curves using the modern ASC technique. These landmark findings support ASC as the future of scoliosis surgery, showing outstanding correction rates and long-term durability through biological healing.

Did you know? Practitioners at ILAB are regularly upgrading skills and education. Currently we are taking courses in Addiction and Mental health to better serve as counsel for our patients and their caregivers when worry or questions around prescribed pain control meds come up. Please note that all questions about doses, meds change and weaning should be directed to the practice. We are here to coach and help with resilience when patients have bumpy days.

הערה לגבי יציבה לאחר ניתוח. לאחר ASC עמוד השדרה של המטופל נייד יותר. יותר משמעותית! אנו חושבים כמו אדריכלים כאשר אנו בונים כוח, בונים באופן שיטתי דרך שרירים ציריים כמו גם שרירים תוספתיים. תהליך זה לוקח זמן, ודוקטור א' מייעץ שהשיפוץ אורך 6-9 חודשים
A note about posture after surgery. After ASC the patient's spine is more mobile. More significantly! We think like architects when we build strength, systematically building through axial muscles as well as appendicular muscles. This process takes time, and Doctor A advises that the renovation takes 6-9 months after the operation.

A note on naps! It’s common for patients to have disrupted sleep in the weeks after surgery. The medication schedule will be provided by Dr. C or Nurse Maddie. « Usually « medication must be taken every 3 hours at first. This means waking the patient up through the night. At ILAB we encourage napping during the daytime. You still have to maintain your scheduled med dose, but sleep is an important part of healing. Even if children and teens are returning to school , we encourage naps in the first six weeks at a minimum. For us, sleep is as important as nutrition and water!

A note about XRays! During surgery X Rays are taken, and when the Surgeon finishes he comes out to parents or family to show the final X Ray. It’s important to remember that this image is taken while the patient is still asleep and on the table. Standing X Rays present the spine while muscles are active. The spine looks different! When you see the 6 week XRay , do not compare the two as equally representative of the outcome. The correction is one thing, the six week muscle structure is still weak from resting. Once you are allowed to do PT etc, your muscles will support your correction. At ILAB we provide ongoing chat snd video call support ( What’s App) for those moments when you have questions!

Hamstrings hamstrings hamstrings! Did you know that the pelvic imbalance caused by scoliosis can make the 4 strands of your hamstring muscles tight? You have three hamstrings on each leg, but one has a @ double strand. Doctor A really really wants you to stretch those! Make sure you don’t tuck under your pelvis! Comment here if you’re stretching every day!!!

Good morning ABC patients!
Just jumping in to clarify something. ILAB for ASC was developed with Doctor Antonacci as a Mind/ Body Programme. Doctor A saw a need for Mindset Coaching and progressive movement based therapy over traditional Physiotherapy. The programme is offered for 18 sessions over the course of 10 weeks. We know you may have been reading the forums and sub reddits but please message us to find out what we actually do and how we do it!! ( also those forums are offering bad information sometimes, be careful)
We do not- offer single lessons, offer shortened cycles, or offer the programme as separate components.
You must start ILAB for ASC four weeks before your surgery.
Hope this helps!
