The Cobb’s angle(by X-ray, Full spine view) and Visual analogue scale(VAS) were evaluated before and after the treatments.

Conclusions: Though it is a case report, we found Chuna Therapy and MRT might have valid effect on scoliosis patients. Further rigorous case series and controlled trials are warranted.
