Hyperkyphosis isn’t just “bad posture.”

It’s an excessive rounding of the mid-back that often appears in adolescence, and early intervention matters.
Common signs include:

• Slouching that doesn’t correct easily
• Mid-back pain or stiffness
• Tight hamstrings
• Forward head posture

Treatments include:

✔ ScoliBalance® kyphosis-specific rehab
✔ Custom kyphosis bracing for structural curves
✔ Surgery only for severe cases

If your teen’s posture has changed, a professional assessment can help you understand what’s going on and how to manage it.

“Wait and see” is not a treatment approach for AIS.

Kids and teens do better when their scoliosis is monitored and supported early, especially if you start noticing changes in how they feel or move. These changes can affect confidence, comfort, and everyday quality of life.

Early assessment and the right care, like ScoliBalance® exercises and ScoliBrace®, can help manage progression and keep kids feeling strong and supported.

Your child’s spine is growing fast. Getting ahead of scoliosis makes a real difference.

Did you know scoliosis can start around menopause?
While many people associate scoliosis with teenagers, a significant number of women develop Adult De Novo Degenerative Scoliosis during or after menopause, and it often goes unnoticed.

Why?
Because the drop in oestrogen during menopause accelerates bone loss, disc degeneration, and wear and tear in the spine. Over time, this can lead to a new spinal curvature.

Common signs include:
• Uneven shoulders or hips
• Lower-back pain
• A visible curve
• Leg weakness or numbness
• Loss of height

The good news: early management makes a real difference.

Proactive steps:
✔ Maintain bone health (calcium, vitamin D, strength training)
✔ Monitor hormonal changes
✔ Get regular spine check-ups
✔ Explore non-surgical options like PSSE (Physiotherapeutic Scoliosis-Specific Exercises) and bracing

Scoliosis doesn’t end with adolescence, it can evolve with age.
By understanding the signs, women can stay ahead of spinal changes during menopause and beyond.

Stay ahead of spinal changes. Book an assessment.

When one hip sits higher than the other, your whole body feels it. Pelvic obliquity, an uneven tilt of the pelvis, can affect posture, gait, balance, and even the way your spine curves.

It often shows up with:
• Uneven hips or shoulders
• Lower-back, hip or leg pain
• Changes in walking
• Difficulty standing evenly

Common causes include scoliosis, leg length differences, or hip mobility restrictions.
The good news? It’s treatable.

At ScoliCare, we focus on correcting the cause, not just the symptoms, through:

✔ Scoliosis-specific exercise (ScoliBalance®)
✔ Corrective bracing (ScoliBrace®)
✔ Leg length balancing
✔ Hip mobility rehabilitation

Your pelvis is the foundation of your posture. When it’s aligned, everything above and below works better.

Even mild scoliosis deserves attention.

A diagnosis of mild scoliosis doesn’t mean it will stay that way. Scoliosis is a progressive condition, and early, proactive treatment can make all the difference.

At ScoliCare, our clinicians perform a full assessment, including posture checks, physical exams, and X-rays, to understand each patient’s unique curve and create a tailored, non-surgical treatment plan.

💙 The best time to treat scoliosis is early, while the curve is small and the spine is more flexible.

Last week, Dr. Justin ran a Lunch & Learn session for healthcare professionals at Chiro One Chiropractic & Wellness Center of Pike Street, Seattle.

The educational session focused on understanding scoliosis: learning how to recognise the early signs and when to refer patients for specialist assessment.

It was great to collaborate with Dr. Trang Phong and the Chiro One team, bringing together clinicians dedicated to improving spinal health outcomes.

Scoliosis Exercises to Avoid: Protecting Your Spine from Pain & Injury 💙

Exercise can play a powerful role in managing scoliosis: improving flexibility, posture, and core strength.
But not every exercise is scoliosis friendly. Some movements can actually strain the spine, increase pain, or worsen the curve.

⚠️ Exercises to approach with caution:
❌ Movements that cause pain or discomfort
❌ Exercises that twist or arch the spine excessively
❌ Activities that overuse one side of the body
❌ High-impact exercises that add compression

Every spine is unique, what’s safe for one person may not be for another.
That’s why individualized guidance from a trained scoliosis clinician is key.

At ScoliCare, we use tailored programs like ScoliBalance® alongside ScoliBrace® to help patients build strength safely, maintain flexibility, and improve posture, without risking injury.

💙 Move smart. Stay balanced. Protect your spine.

Did you know scoliosis can develop in adulthood?

Degenerative scoliosis is a type of adult scoliosis that develops later in life due to age-related changes in the spine. As the spine becomes more unbalanced and unstable, symptoms like pain, posture changes, and reduced mobility can appear, and often get worse over time.

Common signs may include:
✅ Lower back pain
✅ Leaning forward or to one side
✅ Loss of height
✅ Balance or walking difficulties

The good news?
It’s never too late to take action. A proactive approach can help with:

✔️ Pain management
✔️ Better posture & spinal stability
✔️ Lower fall risk
✔️ Improved daily movement & quality of life

At ScoliCare, we combine:

💪 ScoliBalance® physiotherapy scoliosis-specific exercises to improve muscular strength and support
🦴 ScoliBrace® to provide stability and help manage spinal imbalance

Every adult spine is different, and so is every care plan. We’re here to help you understand your options and move with confidence. 💙

🦵 Leg Length Discrepancy: Causes, Effects & Solutions

Did you know even a small difference in leg length can affect your posture, balance, and overall movement?
A leg length discrepancy (LLD) occurs when one leg is shorter than the other, sometimes due to bone structure, injury, or misalignment elsewhere in the body. This imbalance can impact the spine, hips, and gait, leading to discomfort or pain over time.

At ScoliCare, we take a holistic approach to identify the underlying cause (whether structural or functional), using precise X-ray measurements to ensure accurate assessment, and create a treatment plan focused on restoring symmetry, balance, and healthy movement.

Parents know their kids best, and sometimes, you can spot small things others might miss: a shoulder that sits higher, a hip that looks uneven, or a visible curve when they bend forward. 👀

These could be early signs of scoliosis, which affects around 5% of children and teens. The good news? Early detection can make a huge difference, improving treatment success and long-term posture health.

At ScoliCare, we make spine checks simple, gentle, and reassuring, designed with kids (and parents!) in mind, helping families get clarity and confidence about their child’s posture. 🙌
