THERAPIES
The main causes that lead to scoliosis are an incorrect body posture assumed for a long
time and sedentariness. The deviation also occurs where there is a predisposition of the body,
such as a degeneration of the vertebral joints and ligaments as well as a weakening of the
paravertebral muscles’ tone (hypotonia). In adults, scoliosis also occurs as a consequence of
the aging process, especially where there is osteoporosis or osteoarthritis.
Infantile scoliosis accounts for the most frequent cases; the first symptoms appear
around the age of 8-10. During puberty, when the process of growing becomes accelerated,
the curves may become aggravated. The increased deformation raise the risk of torsioning one
or several vertebrae and deforming the thorax, the abdomen and the paravertebral
areas. Gibbosity or thorax deformation reduces the pulmonary capacity and causes
overstraining of the cardiac muscle, therefore raising the risk of cardiac diseases.
A lot of people have backbone curves of less than 10 degrees. From the perspective of
the traditional medicine, scoliosis must be treated properly, even where there is a deviation of
less than 10 degrees, mainly because of the neurological obstructions and of the body
dysfunctions that it causes. The deviations of over 30 degrees inclination require a medicinal
corset, too. Where there are deformations of over 50 degrees, surgery is advisable.
Treatment
In the traditional medicine, the scoliosis treatment aims at the restoration of the natural
vertebral route by acupuncture and Tibetan thermo-therapy techniques, osteo-articular
manipulation, medicinal gymnastics and herbs products. The totality of therapies involved
serve to eliminate the hypotonia (weakening of the paravertebral muscles’ tone), to reduce the
inflammation and the contraction of the muscles and ligaments. The intervertebral ligaments
are functionally and structurally restored if there are minor or medium lesions. The herb
products contain active substances that work for the healing of the associated chronic diseases,
but also for the recovery of the local tissues’ structure.
