Posture
(Secondary Objective)
Clinically appraised desirable postural changes will be patient specific and
defined by both clinical and radiological features of their condition. Often,
the posture changes seen, such as improvements in spinal decompensations, are
responsible for stabilisation or correction of progression and reductions in
pain.

Progression
Correction/Stabilisation
of Spinal Deformities/Misalignments. In such
cases, radiological evaluations are advised
to optimise treatment. Radiological objectives
may include optimisation of spinal balance, reduction of spinal decompositions
and reduction of Cobb angles. Please note significant correction of Cobb angles
in adults will rarely be possible and therefore should not be the primary or
only treatment objective.
