    Scoliosis can't be cured PERIOD.

    It can be halted, somewhat corrected, but once you got it, you'll always keep it!

    Depending on the severity of your "bends" a brace may be an option. That can halt the deformation until you experience your last growth spurt. I wish I had been given that option when I was 13. I would probably not have half of my spine fused solid now.
