💚It’s Scoliosis Awareness Month! 💚

So, here's a throwback to Michael’s story! Michael's scoliosis was so severe it was causing issues with his breathing. Thanks to care from Vincent Prusick, M.D., Michael is breathing easier today.

Most critically, though, Michael’s curve was causing life-threatening breathing issues as his lung capacity had been diminished by the curve’s pressure on his lungs.

Superheroes wear boots!

Today is World Clubfoot Day 🌍👟 Clubfoot affects thousands of children each year and with early diagnosis and the right care, it’s highly treatable.

At Shriners Children’s Lexington, our skilled team helps children with clubfoot move beyond their diagnosis and into healthy, active lives.

Let’s spread awareness and support early treatment for brighter tomorrows 💖

💚Today marks the start of National Scoliosis Awareness Month 💚

June is dedicated to increasing public understanding of scoliosis—a condition characterized by an abnormal curvature of the spine. So, this month, we'll be sharing all sorts of content to do just that!

Scoliosis can affect individuals of all ages, but early diagnosis and treatment can make a significant difference. Let's come together to raise awareness and support those impacted by scoliosis.
