Research:

In several SMALL research studies Adolescent Scoliosis was reversed and/or stopped the progression. The initial study (Vert Mooney/U.S. Spine and Sport) was very small with about 12 participants. Hopefully one day it will be expanded upon (there was a validation study taking place in New Zealand and at the University of Kansas – nothing has been published on either of these studies. I did speak with the researcher at the University of Kansas and he said it was “valid” however he will not “expand” or “elaborate” since they did not publish. The program has been been beneficial to many families. There are numerous examples of successful outcomes. Much credit needs to be given to Laurie Flohr for sharing and expanding upon the program. Laurie developed the modifications for the MedX Torso Machine and has helped numerous families.
