This simple screening may help you be the first to notice changes in your
child's spine.
To check for potential signs of scoliosis in your child, have them disrobe
and stand relaxed with arms at their sides. Here is what to look for:
Is their head level and centered over their trunk? Are their shoulders the
same height?
Are their hips at the same level? When bent forward with arms dropping
down towards feet, is rib cage level on both sides?
If you answered NO to one or more of these questions, consult with a
scoliosis care professional for further evaluation.
