Scoliosis Treatment
At Gemini Spine, we treat scoliosis and other spinal deformities with precision, compassion, and the most advanced surgical techniques available. Whether you’re an adult living with progressive curvature or a young patient seeking early intervention, our goal is simple: to restore spinal balance and improve your quality of life.
What Is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a condition that causes the spine to curve abnormally sideways, often forming an “S” or “C” shape. It can be congenital, degenerative, or idiopathic (without a known cause), and in some cases, it progresses over time—especially without treatment.
Other Spinal Deformities We Treat
In addition to scoliosis, our specialists address a range of spinal alignment disorders:
-
Kyphosis (hunchback curve)
-
Lordosis (excessive inward curve)
-
Flatback syndrome
-
Spondylolisthesis (vertebral slippage)
-
Post-surgical spinal imbalance
-
Complex spinal reconstructions
Signs You May Need Deformity Correction
-
Uneven shoulders or hips
-
Rib hump or rotated torso
-
Noticeable spinal curvature
-
Chronic back or neck pain
-
Difficulty standing upright or walking
-
Loss of height
-
Difficulty breathing (in severe cases)
Our Multidisciplinary Approach
At Gemini Spine, you benefit from both orthopedic and neurosurgical expertise—a powerful combination when it comes to complex spinal realignment.
-
Orthopedic Spine Surgeon: Focuses on vertebral structure, hardware stabilization, and biomechanical correction
-
Spinal Neurosurgeon: Ensures spinal cord and nerve safety during reconstruction
Together, they create a comprehensive, tailored plan that prioritizes safety, symmetry, and long-term spine health.
Treatment Options
We always start with non-surgical options if appropriate:
-
Bracing (for younger patients with mild curves)
-
Targeted physical therapy
-
Pain management and postural training
For moderate to severe cases or when symptoms worsen, surgery may be the best option.
Surgical Deformity Correction at Gemini Spine
We offer the most modern spinal correction techniques, including:
-
Spinal Fusion using rods, screws, and bone grafts
-
Osteotomies (removal of bone segments to allow straightening)
-
Vertebral column resection for severe deformities
-
Segmental instrumentation for gradual, controlled correction
-
Minimally invasive or hybrid approaches, when appropriate
Most procedures are custom-planned using 3D imaging and performed with advanced navigation for absolute precision.
What to Expect from Recovery
Recovery varies depending on the complexity of the surgery, but many patients:
-
Begin walking the day after surgery
-
Return home within a few days (or same day in minor cases)
-
Resume daily activities within 6–8 weeks
-
Experience dramatic improvement in posture, function, and confidence
We provide detailed aftercare instructions and follow-up support at every step.
