Free Scoliosis check for children

Bring your kids, your grandkids, or the whole family to this free scoliosis check-up. The event is for all children ages 5-15 and a parent/guardian must be present during the examination. Scoliosis is a very serious condition that inhibits the body from functioning at 100%. Scoliosis can cause organ damage, muscle damage, and can be debilitating and life-threatening if left untreated. Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine usually seen from a front (anterior) or back (posterior) view of the spine.

Please RSVP at (702) 636-2843. Patients will be taken on a first come, first served basis otherwise.

During the examination, should the doctor find anything of concern, he will recommend a more detailed, in-depth examination. The in-depth examination will be available to all who are attending for only $24. The in-depth examination will include a complete oral and written history, and a full neurological, orthopedic, and functional examination with the doctor. The $24 special will not include x-rays, should the doctor deem them as necessary.
