How is scoliosis diagnosed?

Scoliosis can be diagnosed by performing a physical exam that includes bending from the waist as if touching your toes. This test allows the doctor to assess for any signs of scoliosis, such as one shoulder being higher than the other or one hip appearing more prominent than the other. X-ray imaging can also be used to detect and measure the degree of scoliosis curvature.

How long does it take for scoliosis chiropractic care to work?

The length of time that it takes for scoliosis chiropractic care to work varies from person to person, depending on the severity of the condition and the type of therapy being used. In general, chiropractic care and physical therapy can provide relief from pain within a few weeks. Bracing, on the other hand, may take up to 6-8 months before the desired results are seen.

Does chiropractic care for scoliosis hurt?

No, chiropractic care for scoliosis is gentle and non-invasive. The chiropractor uses their hands to apply gentle pressure and make small adjustments, which should not be painful.

What Are The Signs of Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine, and as such, it has a few tell-tale signs. When observing someone with scoliosis from behind, you may notice that one shoulder appears to be higher than the other or that one hip appears higher or more prominent. You might also observe that one side of the rib cage appears higher than the other or that the waist appears uneven. Additionally, you may notice that one leg appears shorter than the other when compared to the unaffected side. Finally, when bending forward from the waist, you may observe one shoulder blade sticking out more prominently than the other.

These are all signs of Scoliosis, and if you are experiencing any of them, it is highly recommended that you have your spine assessed by a qualified professional.

How Does It Work?

The process of correcting scoliosis with a chiropractic method is fairly straightforward. First, I assess your spine and determine the type, location and degree of the curve; this helps me determine the best chiropractic care plan for you. Then, I will use gentle spinal manipulation to correct misalignments that are exacerbating your condition; this should also help alleviate any pain or discomfort you are experiencing. Finally, I will develop a plan of care for you that includes exercises and/or bracing in order to ensure the best possible outcome.

The results of chiropractic care can be remarkable; when treated early, many patients experience a reduction in curvature and symptoms while preventing further damage. By working with Sugarland Chiropractic Centre, you can rest assured that your Scoliosis will be treated in the most effective way possible.
