Scoliosis:

Best Scoliosis Treatment Without Surgery

Scoliosis is an abnormal side-bending curvature of the spine. It is more common in girls than boys. The actual cause of scoliosis is still unknown but is linked to genetic predisposition, often passed from mother to child. In general, there are two forms of scoliosis:

  1. “C”-shaped scoliosis: These are single scoliotic curves that resemble the letter “C.” A ‘C” shaped scoliosis may progress to the “S” shaped scoliosis.
  2. “S”-shaped scoliosis: This is double scoliosis, resembling the letter “S.” These are more complicated curves with rapid progression.

Based on their presentation, both the “C” and “S” shaped scoliosis is further divided into two categories:

  1. Rotatory scoliosis: Rotatory scoliosis is one where the spine twists as it bends. Rotatory scoliosis is a faster-developing condition and is harder to manage and treat.
  2. Non-Rotatory Scoliosis: In non-rotatory scoliosis, the bending is present without rotation. These are often seen in the early stages of “C” shaped scoliosis.

What Is The Best Treatment For Scoliosis?

The best Scoliosis treatment is evidence-based, targeting the side bending at the apex and the rotatory components. Twisting, turning, and turning can worsen a scoliotic, especially on both sides.

The non-rotatory Activator methods of chiropractic are the best technique in chiropractic for scoliosis. Avoid the Gonstead and Diversified methods of chiropractic treatments if you have a slipped disc or scoliosis.

Scoliosis patients can benefit a lot from targeted scoliosis-based physiotherapy treatments. However, twisting or bending the spine from side to side should be avoided. Physiotherapy should focus on stretching tight muscles and scoliosis-specific strengthening of weak muscles. Strengthening programs for scoliosis takes expertise and experience. It would be best to be careful about the strengthening or training programs you engage in because if you strengthen or boost the wrong muscles, it will worsen your scoliotic curve.

To summarize, the best type of scoliosis treatment is an integrative system of care that combines activator chiropractic (non-rotatory chiropractic) and focused physiotherapy.
