Scoliosis Treatment in Hope Abilitation Medical Center (Hope Abilitation Medical Center, LLC)
About the clinic
Hope Abilitation Medical Center (Hope AMC) in Dubai provides non-surgical scoliosis treatment for children. The center focuses on preventing spinal curve progression through custom orthotics and targeted physical therapy. Dr. Mohamed Masshour leads the pediatric orthopedic department, bringing specialized expertise to scoliosis care within a multidisciplinary environment.
Diagnostics and assessment
Every treatment plan starts with a physical evaluation at the clinic. This assessment helps the medical team understand the specific needs of the child's spine. The diagnostic process at Hope AMC includes several steps:
- Initial postural assessment. Specialists examine the child's standing position and spinal alignment.
- Curvature analysis. The team measures the degree and pattern of the spinal curve.
- Muscle strength testing. Doctors check the strength of the muscles supporting the spine.
- Flexibility evaluation. This helps determine how the spine responds to different movements.
Non-surgical treatment options
The clinic uses conservative methods to manage scoliosis without invasive surgery. These treatments are most effective for growing children and teenagers. The medical team combines different therapies to support the spine from multiple angles.
- Scoliosis-specific physiotherapy. This includes targeted exercises to strengthen spinal muscles and stretching routines. Patients learn postural training to improve how they hold their bodies during daily activities.
- Custom bracing. The Orthotics & Prosthetics Clinic creates braces tailored to the child's body. These devices guide spinal growth and help stop the curve from getting worse.
- Regular monitoring. The team tracks the spine's progress over time to adjust the treatment plan as the child grows.
