Decompression therapy is a treatment method that chiropractors use and it does help with certain scoliosis conditions.
Depends on the severity. More than likely yes. An exam and potential xrays would be recommended.
Yes but depending on your age and the severity of the scoliosis, it may not be correctable however much can be done to relieve pain, limit worsening of the scoliosis and of the discs and joints which also tend to degenerate. Jay H Schwartz, DC, DIBCN, DIBE
Absolutely! Chiropractors are highly trained in dealing with scoliosis. Scoliosis often times is an adaptation to neurological imbalance and less commonly occurs due to congenital anomalies. Chiropractors adjust the spine which allows the nervous system to function at its highest potential in a well balanced manner.
