Key words were 'scoliosis' or 'scoliosis and...treatment; gene; genetics; genome; therapy; exercise; physical therapy; physical methods; osteopathy; chiropractic; manipulation; massage; nonsurgical; conservative; and early intervention.' Older literature cited in articles obtained through electronic searches was procured from the University of Arizona Health Sciences Center Library collection in Tucson, Arizona or through the AHSC interlibrary loan service. Also surveyed were proceedings of meetings of the Scoliosis Research Society, the International Research Society for Spinal Deformity, and the Phillip Zorab Symposium; contemporary (1950spresent) physical therapy, pulmonary, orthopaedic and other medical textbooks including issues dedicated to scoliosis and other spinal deformities; popular and scholarly books on scoliosis available commercially through Amazon.com or the University Library system, including English translations of the writings of ancient Greek physicians including Hippocrates.

Robert Roaf, Professor of Orthopedic Surgery, University of Liverpool The Williams and Wilkins Company, Baltimore. "Often in severe scoliosis, the ribs become almost completely fixed and there is hardly any costal movement. When there is any movement, it is usually a posterior movement of the angle of the ribs which is often accompanies by an anterior movement of the anterior ends of the ribs on the concave side, i.e. relative to the ribs on the concave side. On the concave side of a scoliotic chest, the ribs are usually in an almost horizontal position and therefore the transverse diameter of the chest cannot be increased by the upward 'bucket handle' movment, as it is in the normal chest. The result is that for practical purposes, movments of the chest wall hardly increase the volume of the thorax in patients with scoliosis. This results in failure of development of the lungs. In addition, the various respiratory movements tend to increase the rotation." "Dietitic factors: there is evidence that beta amino propionile and semicarbazide weaken the intermolecular links of collage fibers. the importance of collagen in regulating growth is now well recognized. Therefore it seems that the various forms of experimental scoliosis produced by abnormal diets may be due to growth disturbances secondary to weakness of collagen tissue. In 1933 Geiger, Steenbock, Harry and Parsons noticed that white rats fed a diet of sweet peas developed scoliosis and hernias. In 1948 Lewis made a similar observation. In 1952 Ponsett and Baird noticed that dissecting aneurysms of the aorta and scoliosis were produced by feeding rats on sweet peas. Since then further work has shown that there is weakening of the attachment of the epiphyseal plate to the body and of the spinal ligaments to the bones. It has also been shown that the basic factor in sweet peas is glutamyl-amino propionitrile and since then that other substances, in particular semicarbizine, have been shown to produce scoliosis in experimental animals. These experiments cast a great deal of light on the normal processes of vertebral growth and the factors that may interfere with them." EXERCISES. From time immemorial exercises have been used in the treatment of deformities. It is doubtful if they have any effect on the shape of the bones or on the growth of the bones, but a combination of active exercises, assisted movements and passive stretching can stretch 'soft' tissues such as muscles and joint capsules and therefore correct deformities due to joint contractures, i.e. without there being an abnormal shape of the bones. In the early 147 stages of any deformity and in order to prevent a deformity increasing, exercises may play a role, but once an abnormal shape of the bones has been established it is very unlikely that exercises alone will correct this (no ref) Exercises may have other advantages, of course. They may increase vital capacity, improve posture, or benefit the general health; they have at least this virtue that they seldom do harm, but by themselves they cannot cure an established deformity. In some instances, if there is a considerable degree of muscle imbalance or abnormal muscle action, exercises, by strengthening the already overactive muscles or those with a mechanical advantage, may possibly increase the deformity." Manipulations and stretching: Active exercises can stretch contracted muscles, ligaments and joint capsules. Similarly assisted movements and passive stretching, whether this can be manually or by using special apparatus, can also stretch soft tissues."

Michael Neuwirth MD, Chief of Spine Services at Hosp for Joint Diseases. "Many children go untreated, with painful results later in life." "Postural scoliosis can, in some cases, grow into structural scoliosis" (no refs) "A good idea to develop a regular exercise routine." "The Scoliosis Association maintains that observation is a form of treatment." (p. 30) "The Scoliosis Research Society is an organization of orthopedic surgeons specializing in spinal deformity. Physicians cannot join unless >20% of their practice is devoted to spinal deformity." The Scoliosis Association is an information and support network made up of volunteers with scoliosis, or family members. The National Scoliosis Foundation is an advocacy group that publishes booklets, promotes school screening and research. "Chiropractors can relieve pain--unproven as a treatment. Treatment Four choices: Do nothing; 'Wait and see'; Brace; Surgery Alternative therapies: yoga, Feldenkrais, Pilates "None has been tested using scientific methods, and they have not been proved through scientific research to correct scoliosis." "Only bracing and surgery have been scientifically proved to be effective in stopping or correcting a spinal curvature." (p. 61) Alexander: faulty posture contributes to physical and emotional problems Feldenkrais (Russian born Israeli). Practitioner Mary Newell: "Would like more opportunity to work with teenagers with mild curves." "Will not correct structural scoliosis but can help people move better and have better self image." (BE) Pilates (1880) Yoga: "will not cure scoliosis but can reduce stress". Bobbie Fultz: "all systems recognize significance of holding patterns in the body--when you are sad or angry, you tighten. When you release, old memories, tastes, and smells come back. There are many ways of getting to the same result." 149 "Since scoliosis is often genetically transmitted..." "Many physicians still believe a dynamic brace is far better than passive..others disagree. "As sure as the sun will come up in the morning, braces are effective." (nachemson) SRS-supported research: 131 no braces: progression in 70% (>6 degrees) after five years 115 + braces: progression in 20% (>6 degrees) after five years "I know all the tricks," Dr. Lubicky said to me, "Teens go out thru the garage, leave the brace..." Copes Scoliosis Total Recovery System: air-injected brace, manipulation, exercise, nutrition--23 year old male: "Completely corrected and pain free for five years" "SRC does not endorse; no clinical trials." "Scoliosis surgery isn't as bad as it sounds, once you learn more about it." (sounds like a big deal, but just a day's work for orthopedic surgeons..." "If a patient is experiencing back pain as a direct result of scoliosis, doctors may ask her to consider surgery." "The Cosmetic Debate" (p. 116) "Appearance plays a legitimate role in the decision to have surgery." Dr. Thomas Haher told me, "We suddenly realized that we scoliosis specialists, a bunch of middle aged men, were making decisions for a lot of teenaged girls, and we didn't have the foggiest idea what was important to them." "You couldn't slump if you wanted to" (with a spinal fusion) "Should the loss of flexibility influence anyone to avoid surgery?" (no) "Most insurance companies cover scoliosis surgery." 150 ORTHOPEDICS Abelson R 2006 Whistle-blower suit says device maker generously awards doctors.
