Scoliosis Chiropractic

Many people's first experience with scoliosis screening comes from their elementary school gym teacher. However, while these screenings can be helpful in identifying potential cases, gym teachers lack the expertise and qualifications of chiropractors when it comes to accurately diagnosing and treating scoliosis.

Understanding Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal curvature of the spine, typically exceeding 15-20 degrees. If left untreated, scoliosis can lead to a range of mild to severe symptoms that may worsen with age. This is why it's crucial for anyone who suspects they may have scoliosis to consult with a chiropractor as soon as possible.

The Chiropractic Approach to Scoliosis

Chiropractic care is uniquely suited to address scoliosis because it focuses on correcting misalignments in the spine. By carefully adjusting the spine, chiropractors can help reduce the progression of scoliosis, maintain the health of spinal discs and joints, and alleviate associated symptoms.

Alleviating Nervous System Tension

One of the most significant concerns with scoliosis is the tension it places on the spinal cord. When the spinal cord is under stress, it can disrupt the proper functioning of the nervous system. Since the nervous system controls various organs, muscles, and tissues throughout the body, this disruption can lead to a wide range of symptoms, from back pain and breathing difficulties to heart issues.
