What are the Main Causes of Scoliosis | Dr. Andrew Strauss

In this video I will be talking about the underlying causes and main drivers of scoliosis. While scoliosis is considered a genetic condition, not everyone with the genetic weakness will develop scoliosis, which suggests that environmental factors may also play a role. Epigenetics, which refers to the effect of the environment on the genetically weak person, is considered a significant factor in scoliosis development. Asynchronous growth, which occurs when the spinal cord does not match the speed at which the bony column grows up, is another driver of scoliosis. Also I will demonstrate how stretching to lengthen the spinal cord can be an effective treatment for scoliosis. 🟥 SUBSCRIBE: https://bit.ly/3FIwkSC 🌐 WEBSITE: https://www.hudsonvalleyscoliosis.com/ ☎️ PHONE: (845) 624-0010 📧 EMAIL: [email protected] About : Dr. Strauss is the director of the Hudson Valley Scoliosis Correction Center in New York.
