Scoliosis is a sideways curve of the spine that often develops during growth spurts. Early detection is key to managing it effectively.

Tools we use to assess scoliosis include:

X-rays to measure the degree of curvature
Clinical tests, like the Thomas test, to check posture, flexibility, and muscle balance

With proper assessment, we can guide treatment options such as bracing, physiotherapy, and monitoring.

If you or your child has concerns about posture or spinal alignment, book an assessment with our team. Early intervention can make all the difference.

Sometimes the smallest adjustment makes the biggest difference. Shoe build-ups are a simple but effective way to restore balance, improve gait, and reduce discomfort for patients with leg length differences. Each pair is customized to blend in seamlessly, so you can walk with confidence and comfort.

Not all flat spots are created equal. Craniosynostosis is more than just a head shape- it’s a medical condition that may require surgery. It is important to learn the signs, know the difference, and understand why helmets may not always be the answer.

Contact us on 011 803 6649 if you think your little one could have craniosynostosis.

October was filled with two special events to honour Breast Cancer Awareness Month — an Open Day at Grant Monaghan and Associates in collaboration with Reach for Recovery and our breast care suppliers, and The Sisonke Sisters Wellness Day.

Both events created safe spaces for learning, sharing, and support — with educational talks, product demonstrations, free fittings, and ample fun was had.

A heartfelt thank you to everyone who attended and helped make these days so meaningful. Together, we continue to raise awareness and empower women on their recovery journeys.

Ever wondered what the inside of a scoliosis brace looks like? While the outside may seem simple, the inside tells the real story!

Inside the brace, strategically placed pads apply gentle pressure to guide the spine, while relief areas allow space for natural alignment and growth. This balance between pressure and relief is what helps the brace correct scoliosis effectively.

Every brace is custom-made to match each person’s unique curve, ensuring both correction and comfort.

If you’d like to learn more about scoliosis bracing or book a consultation, reach out to us today on 011 803 6649.

Noticing a flat spot on your baby’s head? You’re not alone — this is called positional plagiocephaly, and it’s very common.

Many babies’ head shapes improve naturally with simple changes at home, but in some cases, a cranial remoulding helmet can give that extra nudge for symmetrical growth.
Our team offers gentle, non-invasive solutions to help your baby’s head shape develop beautifully.

If in doubt, give us a shout!

Plagiocephaly, or "flat head syndrome," doesn't just affect one part of the skull — it can impact symmetry at multiple levels, including the eyes, ears, cheeks, and jawline. This image illustrates how cranial asymmetry can influence facial balance as a whole.

At Grant Monaghan and Associates, we assess these subtle differences and provide customized cranial remoulding helmet therapy when needed. Early intervention = better outcomes.
