Scheuermann’s disease is a skeletal disorder that appears mostly during childhood and is also known as adolescent kyphosis or Calvé disease. A person suffering from this condition has their vertebrae grow unevenly, which results in kyphosis.

It can occur at any age and some people are even born with it, but certain causes are unknown; however, it has been suggested that the disease is genetic and many studies have shown that a lot of people with it have passed it through inheritance, but this is not a clear result and there are still debates on the matter.

In adults it can be caused by arthritis, fractures and even injuries; it can also be caused by different endocrine diseases, muscular dystrophy, tumors or various infections.

There are different symptoms that will make the life of those with this condition very difficult. Some of the symptoms experienced are: difficulty breathing in the most severe cases, fatigue, mild to severe back pain, round back appearance that may interfere with their social life, tenderness and stiffness in the spine that may occur daily and also interfere with normal activity.

Fortunately, a remedial massage Gold Coast has to offer can easily help those who experience mild to severe back pain and are suffering from this condition. This condition is known to cause lower and mid-level back pain, but also neck pain. A remedial massage therapist will also help with the tenderness and stiffness in the spine and if the person receives regular sessions, they might even get rid of their pain completely.
