What is the relationship between posture and scoliosis?

Scoliosis refers to when a person has a sideways C- or S-shaped curve in their spine. It can occur at any age but most often presents during a person’s teens. Bad posture cannot cause scoliosis. However, practicing and maintaining optimal posture can help reduce pain and slow the condition’s progression.
