Are you experiencing pain from scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a sideways bend in the spine that will slowly get worse over time. In order to be diagnosed with scoliosis, there must be at least a 60 degree curve in the spine. If the spine has advanced to this degree of curvature, there can be other health problems that accompany it. If the curve in the spine is found early, proper treatment can help the condition from advancing.  
Studies have shown that scoliosis is more likely to develop in young females, however it is important to note that this condition can also develop in adults. Osteoporosis is a condition in which the bones in your spine start to lose their shape as you get older and your body needs to compensate for that by developing curves in your spine to keep your head level. This can lead to scoliosis.  

Do you suffer from pain linked to scoliosis?

Scoliosis can be diagnosed after having an x-ray, but there are also other diagnostic tests that can detect scoliosis as well. Chiropractic treatment can help to stop the scoliosis from progressing further and is a conservative method of treatment. Contact us today if you are suffering from scoliosis.
