Expert care for spinal curves—delivered with compassion in the Bronx.
What Is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a side-to-side curve of the spine that can appear during adolescence or develop gradually in adulthood. While some cases remain mild, others can progress and cause pain, uneven posture, or difficulty with daily movement.
Common Types We Treat:
Idiopathic scoliosis – Common in teens; cause often unknown
Degenerative scoliosis – Develops later in life due to spinal wear and tear
Neuromuscular or congenital scoliosis – Linked to muscular or developmental conditions
Early diagnosis is key to managing progression and preventing long-term impact on mobility and quality of life.
