Diagnosis and correction of posture problems such as scoliosis in growing children.
The Posture Clinic diagnoses and corrects posture problems in growing children, such as a tilted pelvis, a misaligned spine and bowed legs. A child's posture is influenced by many factors, including physical, mental and environmental condition, genetics, age and sex. If posture becomes misaligned during growth because of poor posture and habits, it can get worse as the child grows taller, so an accurate early examination is recommended.
The 3D spinal measurement and diagnosis system used at Dangol Hospital was developed by our Medical Director based on his experience treating many spinal disease patients at a university hospital. It is a specialized, scientific scoliosis diagnosis method that holds a Korean patent. It shows the condition of the spine more accurately and can even accurately diagnose pediatric scoliosis, which is difficult to detect early.
At the Posture Clinic, the child's body alignment is first assessed with detailed examinations. Brace treatment and exercise therapy tailored to the child are then used to help correct a tilted pelvis, a misaligned spine or bowed legs. We also guide correct posture and everyday habits so that the child can keep good posture while growing.
