Can inversion help with scoliosis? Does age matter?
Our medical advisor prefers to get patients involved with inversion as early as possible. Using inversion to help slow or reverse the effects of scoliosis is helpful at any age, but especially before the bones fully harden at ages 12-14. There are many causes of scoliosis. Some causes may be problematic for inversion (such as bone infection, cancer, or compression fracture). Most scoliosis in children is related to bone abnormalities or calcification disorders, both of which do well with inversion.
