What is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is an irregular curve in the spine that should not be there. In many cases, the curve deviates to the side, either to the right or left, in an improper fashion. While scoliosis screenings at school have become less frequent, chiropractors are the best professionals to assess this condition accurately. X-rays remain one of the most effective diagnostic tools to determine the curvature and its severity.
Who can be helped?
Scoliosis can manifest in various forms, including congenital (hereditary), idiopathic (unknown cause), or traumatic (resulting from an injury). At Dawson Chiropractic, we observe scoliosis in young children through careful monitoring of shoulder height, head position, hip heights, and body rotation. The earlier we catch scoliosis, especially before puberty, the better chance we have to make positive changes and influence their development.
Our Treatment Approach
At Dawson Chiropractic, we take a multi-faceted approach to treating scoliosis, focusing on three key elements:
1. Chiropractic Adjustments
Our chiropractic adjustments aim to improve the alignment of the spine and nervous system. By identifying areas of restricted movement or compensation, we can address these issues and promote positive changes. Chiropractic adjustments have been shown to be highly effective in helping patients with scoliosis.
2. Targeted Exercises and Stretches
We provide specific exercises and stretches designed to target the affected areas of the spine. Consistent practice of these exercises plays a crucial role in improving flexibility, strength, and overall spinal health. We will create a personalized exercise plan for you to follow, ensuring maximum benefits.
3. Lifestyle Modifications
In addition to chiropractic adjustments and targeted exercises, lifestyle modifications are essential for managing scoliosis. We emphasize the importance of proper sleep position, maintaining correct posture while sitting, and monitoring body positioning during sports activities. These small changes can make a significant impact on your overall well-being and help prevent further progression.
