How Scoliosis Happens?
Is it really a dreaded word to hear from the doctor that you or your child has scoliosis?
What is the cause and what is the cure? There are visions of the hunchback of Notre Dame from in the movies and yet there doesn’t seem to be much of an explanation of why and what can be done. The typical are general stretches or exercises if mild and wearing a back brace in more advanced cases; then there is that word “surgery” that might be mentioned.
Chiropractic does not view scoliosis as a medical disease or a condition that needs to be attacked with a remedy or a brace or a set of exercises or even surgery. As non-surgical spinal experts, chiropractors look at the spine as a dynamic structure that adapts to less than ideal architectural conditions.
Yes, we think most people have a straight spine… right? But this is not true
