Severe Idiopathic or Congenital Scoliosis Halo Gravity Traction Treatment
Halo gravity traction is a procedure used to reduce the degree of curvature in the spines of children with severe idiopathic or congenital scoliosis. Spinal traction is the gentle pulling of the soft tissue (joints and muscles) to help straighten the spine Doctors do this by attaching a halo (a metal ring that surrounds the head) to a pulley system. Over several weeks, weights are added to the pulley system to slowly pull the head upward. Not real gentle this one  |

Re: Severe Idiopathic or Congenital Scoliosis Halo Gravity Traction Treatment
My sister had scoliosis and she was never dangled and twisted. She did wear a brace to align her back then eventually it was corrected with surgery. This must be some voodoo doctor. |
