<![CDATA[Help! Scoliosis treatment at Precision Spine Chiropractic]]>My daughter has recently been diagnosed with scoliosis by the health promotion board and she is getting quite self conscious about her protruding back. Ive been researching on the net and found a clinic called Precision Spine Chiropractic which says they can correct it naturally. I called to make an appointment with the doctor next week Dr Will Kalla.


Could anyone with experience of the doctor or clinic and if it helps with treating scoliosis. The doctors at SGH hospital tells me there nothing we can do apart from bracing as her curve is not bad enough.

I also have 2 younger children and I hope they don’t have to go through this condition too.

Though my DD didn't complained about back pain, I happened to realize recently that she is walking slightly slanted to the left. Being a concerned parent I like to bring her for consultation and advice. Should I bring her to a Chiropractor, Orthopedic Doctor or a Physiotherapist?
Your opinion and sharing are much appreciated.

If leave as it is, it may affect other parts of the body.

TTSH has physiotherapy for protruding and curved spine.

Scoliosis treatment at Precision Spine Chiropractic on Thu, 11 Oct 2018 07:39:19 GMT]]>Hi Guys, Thank GOD my kids doesn't have scoliosis. However, personally i am the person who like to know more (GeaBo). I have found out something you guys might missed out. As Kiasu Parents, good things must share!!


Checked on Google:
Scoliosis do benefit from swimming. Besides the fact that swimming is good for general strengthening of the back muscles, it is also good for breathing function. This makes swimming exceptionally suitable for scoliosis as lung capacity and exercise endurance are likely to be affected among the individuals with scoliosis.

Scoliosis involves uneven development of the spine and the back muscles, as swimming targets generally on the whole back, it would not be able to specifically help reduce back pain caused by muscle imbalance. It does not help reduce the curvature too.

I also found out something interesting over here..Check it out the link below.

http://www.schroth-barcelonainstitute.com/

and

https://www.scoliosisrehab.com/

you might want to find the certified personnel to guide you.. I think they have difference level of certification C1 and C2. You guys might want to explore it yourself. Cheers~~ and stay healthy. GBU.

Scoliosis treatment at Precision Spine Chiropractic on Sat, 08 Sep 2018 08:36:08 GMT]]>Hi. I don’t know much but tried to read up. I mean why would a doctor not offer treatment/ surgery when they could earn money?

I saw this:
“Braces: These body braces are prescribed for children whose bones are still growing. The child will have to wear the brace continuously for one or two years to halt the progression of the spinal curve. “
So I think the SGH doctor was being kind to you.
—> Growing children - issue will continue / recur if just one surgery is done now.

https://www.healthxchange.sg/bones-joints/back-spine/scoliosis-treatment-and-complications

On the other hand, I had a friend’s daughter who had scoliosis and went for 2 years and many thousands of $$ with chiropractor.
At first was happy saying she felt better each time. But after the two years, the issue got worse! Finally went for surgery at age 18 and she’s much better now.

Hope this helps in your consideration.

I have heard that Swimming is a great option for those suffering from pain associated with Scoliosis, is that true? I made my daughter an appointment with https://scoliosiscarecenters.com/ and am looking forward to more answers, I just don't want her to be in pain. As a mother, all I want to do is take it away from her. This is so hard. Thanks

This clinic is in the USA! We are looking for clinics in SG. I think everyone should check out Dr Kevin Lau. He treats it most holistically as he is a chiropractor and nutritionist to try an avoid surgery. My kids go to him after trying a few braces and dr.

Yes, my childhood frd had slip disc years ago as a young adult & doc recommended swimming as there's no impact pressure but the exercise in the waters helps strengthen the back muscles.

If yr girl is suffering fr pain, it is best to see an orthopedic first.

You might bring her to a PolyClinic or if u prefer Dr Li Yung Hua, an experienced orthopaedic and spine surgeon specializing in all aspects of spinal conditions. My DH recovered w/o surgery as this Dr try to get patients to go for natural recovery but he is very competent in surgery as DH's colleagues had also recovered fr a serious condition.

Hope yr girl get her pain sorted out & relieved fr pain.

A chiropractor is not the first to be consulted. Parents shld consult a doc first. If there is a need for chiropractic intervention, then doc will refer.

Out of them im most impressed with Dr Kevin Lau as he has a number of positive results posted on his website https://hiyh.info/results/ and he's an international author of many books about scoliosis. I even spoke to a number of other parents who send their kids to him with positive results however its depends on the dedication of the child to do what he recommends.

Scoliosis treatment at Precision Spine Chiropractic on Sat, 13 Jul 2013 03:11:30 GMT]]>I sent my son to therapy for his scoliosis last year and after 6 months there was NO improvement and cost us over $7000. Even worse the doctor marked the xray as if there was correction. Luckily we checked with our family doctor and they told us the right degree and in fact his scoliosis had worsened! Also my doctor was surprised that Will Kalla sent us for so many xrays when all he needed was the scoliosis one as he took others like neck… maybe he gets a commission from the radiology clinic?


I wish we never went to Precision Spine and hope others do more research when looking for scoliosis treatments. Talking to other mums in our support group they also agree. Its sad when there are others out there preying on other peoples desperation.

My friend’s 11yo daughter was diagnosed with scoliosis, she went through 1.5 years of spine chiropractic. She paid a total of $14k for the "treatment" that yielded no result, but delayed and worsen her condition.

You should go to an orthopedic or seek treatment from a physiotherapist.

Best wishes.

But we were desperate as the doctor at SGH had recommended surgery. She went there daily and did all that was recommended and xray showed the scoliosis had gotten worst. This is my own experience and wished we never did the therapy there at precision and saved our money. Hope this helps.

Scoliosis treatment at Precision Spine Chiropractic on Sat, 02 Mar 2013 04:14:08 GMT]]>U can bring her to the polyclinic to get a referral letter to see a specialist at KKH Children's Department. http://www.kkh.com.sg/Services/Women/OrthopaedicSurgery/Pages/Home.aspx


Fee will be subsidised. Alternatively, u can just call up for an appointment and pay private fees.

Depending on the degree of curvature and the age of your child, they would advice what can be done. Some wear the soft brace.

My dd has gone through Chiropractic treatment (not in Spore) and we don't find it useful. It's a long term treatment (2-3x a week) and rather expensive.

She used to swim daily in school but it doesn't help to correct the curvature. However, I am not sure that, if she didn't swim, would it have gotten worst.

Now at 15+, her height has stablised. Due to scoliosis, she would not grow any taller. I started her on Pilates so that she can maintain a better posture and also to prevent and aches/ pains in the future.

To me, having scoliosis is like having crooked teeth. One is born with it. Dd inherited from me. She has learned that it is something that affects many and she should not be upset/ embarrassed about it.
