First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a personalized stepwise treatment for teens aged 12-16 with mild to moderate scoliosis (spine curve under 45 degrees). It compares two types of electroacupuncture and checks if a simpler screening method can replace X-rays. The goal is to improve spine curvature and mood, but ongoing management may still be needed.
