Treatment for scoliosis by a chiropractor will depend on the location of the abnormality and the extent of the curvature. Chiropractic scoliosis treatment does not correct, cure, or reverse scoliosis. Chiropractic adjustments and therapies are designed to help prevent or minimize further degradation of the spine and improve posture and form, which may also improve function and offer scoliosis pain relief.
Treating scoliosis with chiropractic techniques typically involves specific spinal adjustments to correct subluxations (slight vertebral misalignments). Chiropractic correction often benefits patients by reducing the need for surgery, especially if the diagnosis is made before the curve has a chance to progress significantly.
Chiropractic alignments and adjustments for scoliosis are also widely considered to be safe for most patients. During each session, care is taken to apply the correct amount of pressure. Patient feedback is also used to determine the nature of chiropractic treatments for scoliosis pain relief.
