Endorsed by the National Scoliosis Foundation, this is the most comprehensive, up-to-date book available on scoliosis. In it, Nancy Schommer, who herself was diagnosed with the condition as a teenager, discusses how scoliosis develops, the various forms it can take, and how it is diagnosed and measured. Other topics include how to manage pain, how to live with a brace, and what to do to prepare for and recover from sugery, if that proves to be the right treatment. Writing in a compassionate and easy-to-understand style, Schommer intersperses sound medical and scientific facts with encouraging personal stories from scoliosis sufferers of all ages. Stopping Scoliosis is a source of information and support that you can turn to time and again.
