Acupuncture points were determined in connection with the important role of melatonin in the symmetrical growth of the proprioceptive system and spinal muscles.

The placement of semi-permanent needles on the “epiphysis” (pineal gland) and “omega” (mesodermaltissues) points allowed in these two patients a clear reduction in pain, a disappearance of lumbago and thefeeling of to sort out.

Thus, auricular acupuncture effectively improves the orthopedic medical treatment of progressive scoliosis inadults.
