Kaley's pediatrician alerted her parents after noticing a small curve in her spine during her physical exam. The doctors advised not to worry and to watch and wait. Two months later, Kaley's appearance started drastically changing as a result of her scoliosis rapidly worsening.

After running two X-Rays on Kaley, they confirmed the curve on her spine was at 44 degrees. The treatment expectations for Kaley were not looking good. The doctors again told her to watch out for any progressions and that she might need surgery to correct this problem.

The initial recommendation for mild cases of scoliosis is to wait and see what happens because the standard treatment often put the patient at risk and tend to be very invasive.

Dr. Tony Nalda disagrees with this point of view and stated that reducing the curve while it's still small is the best approach possible.

Kaley's scoliosis was already classified as severe when she reached out to Dr. Nalda. He explains that this classification, combined with the fact that she is still growing, puts her at high risk of worsening every time she grows.

To help Kaley, Dr. Nalda uses the center's scoliosis brace called ScoliBrace. This is a corrective style brace that works along with therapy to push scoliosis and reduce it. In Kaley's case, the best treatment approach was intensive care; this takes traditional exercises and applies them quickly for short periods.

Thanks to Dr. Nalda's chiropractic approach, Kaley's curvature has decreased from 49 degrees to 40 degrees in 4 days. Not only is it visible in Kaley's current X-Rays, but at plain sight, her shoulders and ribs have returned to a more aligned position.
