vertebral growth modulation

Vertebral growth modulation is a non-invasive technique used to correct spinal deformities like scoliosis. It works by applying controlled, gentle forces to the growth plates of the spine during a child's growth period. These forces influence how the vertebrae grow, encouraging the spine to develop in a straighter alignment over time. Essentially, it guides natural growth to improve spinal shape without the need for traditional surgery. This method is safe, effective, and can reduce the need for more invasive procedures as the child grows.
