Hi everyone,my 15 year ,almost 16,old son has friedrichs ataxia

He has scoliosis as a result,6 months ago at his hospital check up it was 78 and 74 degrees

His dad brings him to gym to keep him active and he uses the power plate there

At his check up a few days ago ..his scoliosis is now 56 and 54 degrees

We honestly believe the power plate is responsible for this ..he also finds it helps his balance a bit
