Klippel-Feil Syndrome can have some natural treatments, these vary depending upon the person, their pain, severity and preferences.
For axial symptoms and radiculopathy, use soft tissue massage and therapeutic treatment, including modalities and medications. Avoid spinal manipulation.
Therapy services vary. Aerobic and aquatic exercise are preferred. Postural exercises and strengthening of neck, shoulder, and periscapular musculature is recommended in most patients. Range of motion should be increased in cases of torticollis and Sprengel's deformity. Breathing exercises are recommended for patients with scoliosis. Occupational therapy is recommended for synkinesia. Other options include prosthetic training for limb deficiencies, speech therapy for vocal cord impairment, and a home exercise and stretching program.
Noncontact sports and aquatic exercises are the preferred recreational activity. Avoid contact sports, exercises with falls, tumbling, jumping, and exercises stressing the cervical spine.
