Scoliosis Care for All Ages: Success Stories & The "5 at 5" Home Screening Test
Welcome to a look inside the Hey Clinic! In this video, we take you on a tour of our patient-centered exam rooms and share the journey of scoliosis and kyphosis treatment—from conservative physical therapy to life-changing surgery.

What you’ll learn in this video:

A Different Kind of Exam Room: See how our rooms are designed for patient education, featuring big screens for X-ray reviews and dedicated space for families to get their questions answered.

Non-Surgical Success: Watch the dramatic improvements possible through Schroth exercises, featuring a 10-year-old boy’s kyphosis correction and a significant scoliosis curve reduction.

Surgical Milestones: We share stories of patients reclaiming their lives—from a teenage gymnast and a roller derby athlete to a 74-year-old grandmother regaining her independence.

The "5 at 5" Rule: Learn a simple way to screen your child for scoliosis at home using nothing but your smartphone.

The "5 at 5" Home Test 📱

Start Screening: Begin checking your child around age 5.

Use Your Phone: Open the "Level" or "Measure" app on your smartphone.

Check the Angle: Place the phone on your child's back as they lean forward.

The Rule: If the Angle of Trunk Rotation (ATR) is 5 degrees or more, it would be a good idea to get an X-ray.

At the Hey Clinic, we provide lifelong care for every generation. Whether you are a concerned parent or an adult dealing with spinal curvature, we are here to help you stand straight and live life to the fullest.
