This trial looks at a non-surgical (conservative) approach to managing mild scoliosis in teens. It may help by improving comfort, posture control, and how the curve changes over time without surgery.
This trial tests a prehabilitation program to see if it helps people recover better after major surgery. You would start the program at least 3 weeks before your operation.
This study tests a rehabilitation program for teens and young adults who had spinal fusion surgery for scoliosis 6 months to 3 years ago. The program aims to improve recovery and function.
This trial tests if a 6-week prehabilitation program (exercise and nutrition) before spine surgery helps elderly patients recover better. It is for people 75 or older with long-term lower back problems who need spinal fusion surgery.
