What is scoliosis?

Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature of the spine due to a genetic or acquired disorder. It can cause reduced mobility, asymmetrical shoulder blades and ribs, and an uneven waistline if severe enough. In more serious cases, scoliosis can even lead to difficulty breathing, neck and lower back pain. The condition typically appears during childhood or adolescence – the most common age of onset is between 10 and 15 – but it can also affect adults.

What are the symptoms of scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a medical condition that causes the spine to curve and twist, causing pain, discomfort, and effects on posture. There are three main symptoms of scoliosis: uneven shoulders, one hip higher than the other, and a visible curvature or rib hump along the spine. Additionally, scoliosis can cause difficulties with mobility due to limited range of motion in the back, as well as pain and fatigue due to muscle strain caused by an abnormal positioning of the spine. It is important to get checked if you believe you may have any of these symptoms so that proper treatments can be put in place as early as possible.

What are the treatments for scoliosis?

Scoliosis is an imbalance in the spine which can cause difficulty with movement and discomfort. Treatments for scoliosis primarily involve chiropractic adjustments, physiotherapy, and massage therapy. Chiropractic treatments focus on adjusting the spine to bring balance to its structure as well as reduce pain. Physiotherapy helps to provide strength, flexibility and stability through a variety of exercises while massage therapy aids in reducing muscular tension to promote healing.
