how come physical therapy and strengthening never suggested along with bracing/observation?

[@JohnsHopkinsMedicine]

Thank you for your question! Physical therapy and strengthening exercises are important in managing idiopathic scoliosis, especially for younger patients. They may be suggested alongside bracing or observation based on the patient's specific needs and condition severity. Our care team tailors each treatment plan to provide the best outcome.

@@thorny8013 What's the point then of a presentation if no one answers concerned parents questions?

[@larkspur77]

@@Pujajassi I'm looking for Anterior Scoliosis Correction and was told this surgeon does this procedure but no mention of this...hard to know I suppose some will have to travel across the country for visits.

[@thorny8013]

@@larkspur77 yeah but the reality is not how we imagine it is. These institutions are greedy and they want as many patients rushing to them as possible. They care about ripping people off their money if it is possible. So no, they won't tell you to go to the surgeon 4 blocks from your place becayse it's cheap and convenient, but they'll ask you to contact them. Or even better...they don't reply cuz they're tired
