Can scoliosis be treated by a chiropractor
Jul 21, 2014

Dr. Rania Mousa General Medicine
Scoliosis pain ,as with most back pain, increasing strength and mobility both relieve pain and prevent future pain,Chiropractic or osteopathic manipulation by a qualified chiropractic professional or osteopathic physician can keep the facet joints mobile and help reduce pain.
so chiropractor will reduce pain but will not treat the condition of the curves,it is a controversial method of treatment that seems most effective in treating acute, short-term pain. Chronic conditions do not seem effectively managed by long-term chiropractic care.

if you choose chiropractic treatment you should be referred to a spinal orthopaedist or neurosurgeon if your curves keep increasing
