Home | Scoliosis | Value of Scoliosis Care
Scientific studies have confirmed that there is a direct correlation between a patient’s perception of their health as measured by a health questionnaire, their mortality rate, and the severity of their scoliosis. In other words, the larger the degree of curvature, the more the scoliosis impacts your overall health and well-being, and reduces your lifespan.
Obviously, every degree of correction counts! But what is the real cost, per degree? Let’s take a moment to examine the value of various methods of scoliosis treatment as applied to a hypothetical patient with a 50 degree Cobb angle.
Scoliosis Implant Surgery’ (includes Harrington, stainless steel, titanium, growth rod, anterior and posterior surgical entries) at an average cost of $150,000, depending on the severity of the scoliosis, the cost per degree of a temporary surgical correction can be between $5000 and $10,000!. The correction achieved has been shown to be temporary. Curves will continue to worsen after surgery by about one degree per year. The entire cost of all ‘Breakthrough’ treatment at the Scoliosis Correction Centers is about the cost of one degree of surgical correction, and our treatment works. Corrections become permanent.
Scoliosis Bracing: This is a trick question – standard 3-point bracing will never reduce the severity of scoliosis permanently as the spine will regress backwards over time, making it an effective treatment, accompanied by multiple long term side effects. Whether or not it even stops progression is heavily debated amongst orthopedic surgeons. But for our purposes, the value of bracing cannot be determined, because it is impossible to divide any cost by zero.
The Bottom Line is: Our ‘Breakthrough’ treatment for scoliosis is non-invasive, much less expensive and more successful long term!
Our patients visit us for our Breakthrough, specialized scoliosis intensive treatment from, most of the United States, Europe, Asia, Australia, Middle East, Central America, and Africa.
