Episode 61: Adult Scoliosis Treatment Without Surgery: Eli's Story

Meet Eli, a dynamic speaker and mindset coach. Unlike most patients with scoliosis, who has had the condition at a very young age, his is quite unique because it started out of an arm-wrestling injury when he was around 20 years old and through the years just developed and forced a unique curve.

Traumatic Scoliosis and Its Distinctive Nature
Idiopathic scoliosis’s cause is usually unknown. There could be multiple factors that could contribute such as hormonal growth development, asymmetrical growth patterns, nutrition, or even genetics. Traumatic scoliosis on the other hand arises from known causes such as injuries and in Eli’s case, physical trauma to his upper body caused the curve to either shift and develop in that area which caused something that we call an atypical curvature. This curve doesn’t follow the normal pattern of scoliosis. A lumbar curve, curves to the left while thoracic is to the right. They move away from the heart. But, with Eli, the apex of the curve is right towards the heart, presenting specific concerns and challenges.

Eli's scoliosis developed rapidly after the initial trauma and continued to progress at a relatively faster rate. Over time, his scoliosis transitioned from trauma-induced curvature to a more typical scoliotic condition, requiring a tailored treatment approach. But with the help of Dr. Tony Nalda, Eli's scoliosis curve was significantly reduced by an impressive 50%.

Eli's inspiring journey of overcoming traumatic scoliosis with Dr. Tony Nalda's guidance demonstrates the transformative power of expert care. Through accurate diagnosis, personalized treatment, and ongoing support, Eli has regained control of his life, embracing pain-free movement allowing him to pursue his passions.
