Scoliosis is generally viewed as a lateral curvature of the spine with an axial twist that causes a distortion of the ribs. Current research shows that ideopathic scoliosis is a multifaceted disease that compromises five of the bodyâs systems: digestive, hormonal, muscular, osseous (bones), and neurological.
