If you are over the age of about 8, we cannot straighten your spine. What we Can do is get the bent parts you have to work better. A chiropractor is not going to hurt you, and many offices use very low force procedures to improve your overall balance.
Scoliosis treatment can include chiropractic care as part of a comprehensive plan. Although chiropractic treatments can alleviate pain and discomfort, it is essential to note that they cannot cure scoliosis or reverse the spine's curvature. The effectiveness and safety of chiropractic treatment for scoliosis depend on several factors, including the condition's severity, the patient's overall health, and the chiropractor's specific techniques. It is advisable to discuss this matter with a healthcare provider familiar with your medical history. They can provide tailored advice for your particular situation. Always consult with a healthcare professional before starting any new treatment.

Of course, its actually much more important for someone with scoliosis to see a Corrective Care Chiropractor but be sure they take a full set of X-rays from all angles (10) and do a motion study analysis if possible. Also that they look at the X-rays as they are adjusting not simply write! Type up the listings and go by that.
Good Morning! It absolutely is safe to go to a chiropractor with a scoliosis! This condition is one of many in which many Chiropractors have been educated on how to handle such a situation. Through specific spinal stretches, muscular strengthening, and spinal adjustments. Individuals with scoliosis can actually reverse their conditions, improve their spinal health, and live long healthy lives! Hope this answers your question! Sincerely, Dr. Christopher Wydler
Yes. They can help stabilize your situation which probably will decrease any pain. And probably increase your range of motion.
