ScoliCare provides scoliosis & hyperkyphosis advice and non-surgical treatment. At Pivonka Health, we take a 360° approach toward wellness.
We look to the root cause of problems instead of just treating symptoms and we also believe that not just one treatment option is right for every patient. That's why our staff is full of medical talent with a diverse range of experience and qualifications. At Pivonka Health & Wellness, treatment plans are customized after a complete evaluation to provide what a patient needs to not only feel better quickly, but to also address the cause of the problem.
Did you know there are various causes of scoliosis?🤔
While 80% of cases are idiopathic (unknown origin), the rest include Neuromuscular (due to neurological conditions), Congenital (birth defects), and Pathological (underlying diseases like cancer).
Understanding scoliosis's various types and causes is essential for effective treatment and management. 🩺
ScoliCare East Phoenix offers tailored treatment plans to address each unique case. For more information and support, visit our website or call us at 480-892-0022.📞
Did you know that the first signs of scoliosis or hyperkyphosis often appear in your posture?
An early indicator is an uneven shoulder or a rib cage that sticks out more on one side.🧍♂️
A thorough postural assessment, like the Adams forward bending test, can help determine if further testing is needed. 🔍
But you can start checking for early signs at home too!
ScoliScreen is a free web-based tool to help spot early signs of scoliosis. 📲
While it's a great educational resource for raising awareness and promoting early detection, it's important to remember that it's not a substitute for professional advice.

Early detection and understanding of scoliosis are important, especially in children. 🧒
Scoliosis that starts young has a higher chance of getting worse over time. In some cases, infants may get better on their own, but close monitoring is key.
Early intervention is crucial if scoliosis continues into early childhood, especially between six and eight years old. 🔍
This is because there is still a lot of growth left, which can increase the risk of curve progression.
Proactive monitoring and early action can greatly improve outcomes. 👍
Parents need to stay informed and consult a healthcare professional quickly. 🩺
Schedule a consultation with a scoliosis specialist today to ensure your child's spinal health is on the right track! 🧑⚕️
Thank you for your positive feedback!🌟
Your recommendation means a lot to us. ✨
Finding the right sleeping position while wearing a ScoliBrace is crucial for your comfort.
Back Sleeping - Sleeping on your back is often the most comfortable position when wearing a brace. It allows your body to be evenly supported by the mattress and can reduce pressure points.
Side Sleeping - If you prefer sleeping on your side, (depending on the design of your brace) place a pillow between your knees. This can help align your spine and reduce pressure from the brace.
Avoid Stomach Sleeping - Stomach sleeping is generally not recommended as it can put additional strain on your back and neck, potentially increasing discomfort.
