What is scoliosis

What is Scoliosis?

Currently scoliosis is defined as a lateral deviation of the normal vertical spine. But in fact, the curve is three-dimensional resulting in a complex deformity. Scoliosis is broadly classified into three major groups:

• Congenital scoliosis – a structural anomaly in the vertebrae.
• Neuromuscular – in which there is an imbalance of the function of the muscles leading on to structural deformity of spine.
• Idiopathic – in which the cause is not yet known.
