What the 86% actually measures

Every number on this page comes from one source: a retrospective audit of 100 adolescent patients who completed six months of the ScolioLife® programme.

First, 86% is a curve-control figure, not a correction figure — 30% of patients saw real reduction, and the majority held steady.

Second, the confidence interval means the true rate for patients like these sits somewhere between roughly 78% and 92%.

Results by starting curve size

Baseline Cobb angle was recorded, so these breakdowns are real. The bands overlap (25°–29° curves appear in the first two rows), so the patient counts add up to more than 100.

We do not have an audited figure for curves above 50°, and we are not going to quote one. Every patient in our six-month audit started between 18° and 44°.

Frequently Asked Questions

Six questions, answered from the audit. The full audit page goes deeper.

The 86%

What is the success rate of ScolioLife's non-surgical scoliosis correction?

In an internal audit of 100 compliant adolescents at six months, 86% achieved curve control — 30% improved by more than 5° on X-ray and 56% held within 5° of baseline. 14% progressed. Individual results vary.

What does "success" actually mean for scoliosis correction?

Curve control: the Cobb angle on X-ray either dropped by more than 5° or stayed within 5° of where it started, measured at six months. We report improvement and stability separately so the two are not confused.

How long do these results hold?

Unknown from this audit — six months is where it stops. Longer follow-up through skeletal maturity is underway.

Your curve

Can scoliosis be corrected without surgery?

In many cases a curve can be reduced or held stable without surgery. Rigid bracing has randomised-trial evidence for reducing progression to the surgical threshold, and scoliosis-specific exercise has trial support as an adjunct. In our own six-month audit, 30% of patients saw their curve reduce by more than 5° and a further 56% held stable. Suitability depends on the individual curve, remaining growth and the patient's goals.

Does starting earlier improve the odds?

Clinically, more remaining growth means more opportunity to guide a curve — and more risk if it is left alone. Our audit did not record skeletal maturity, so we cannot put a number on that from our own data, and we will not borrow one.

What is the success rate for severe scoliosis over 50 degrees?

We do not have one. Our audit cohort topped out at 44°. Ask us at consultation what is realistic for a specific curve.
