<\/div>\n

There is more than one way to treat scoliosis, and the right treatment plan can improve the spine\u2019s long-term health and function. Scoliosis is a complex condition; there are many different types and severity levels, and while treatment results can never be guaranteed, scoliosis-specific chiropractic treatment can be integrated into a proactive treatment plan.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s important to understand that as a progressive condition, scoliosis treatment is ongoing, but it can be highly treatable. While surgical intervention was a dominant treatment choice for years, an evidence-based nonsurgical treatment alternative, involving scoliosis-specific chiropractic treatment, has developed.<\/b><\/p>\n

In many cases of scoliosis, we don\u2019t know what causes its initial onset, but we know how to respond with treatment, and this is important because it can shape a patient\u2019s long-term spinal health and quality of life.<\/p>\n

Understanding Scoliosis<\/b><\/h2>\n

Scoliosis<\/a> causes the spine to bend unnaturally to the side and twist; the rotational component is what makes scoliosis a 3-dimensional condition (1).<\/p>\n

As a progressive condition, the nature of scoliosis is to become more severe, and this means the spine\u2019s unnatural spinal curvature is likely to increase in size and the condition\u2019s effects will become more noticeable (1).<\/p>\n

And for patients experiencing pain, this can also increase alongside compression, particularly in adults.(2).<\/p>\n

In young patients whose spines are still growing, the lengthening motion of growth increases risk of progression, and although most don\u2019t have pain, it can exist in these adolescents (3). For adults with scoliosis, pain is common. 2).<\/p>\n

An important thing to understand about scoliosis is that it\u2019s not a static condition; where it is, in terms of severity, at the time of diagnosis, doesn\u2019t mean that\u2019s where it will stay; mild scoliosis is unlikely to stay mild without treatment (4, 5).<\/p>\n

Scoliosis can be diagnosed as mild, moderate, or severe scoliosis (5), and there are also different types from idiopathic scoliosis to neuromuscular and degenerative scoliosis; different types have unique treatment needs, and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is the most prevalent type overall.<\/p>\n

Progressive conditions need to be treated proactively to counteract their progressive nature (4, 5, 6).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s also important to understand that scoliosis is a structural spinal condition, meaning there is an abnormality within the spine itself, so treatment also has to impact the condition\u2019s underlying structural nature.<\/p>\n

And remember, scoliosis doesn\u2019t just cause the spine to bend unnaturally to the side; the spine also twists and translates, so its rotation and translation has to also be addressed (5).<\/p>\n

So where does chiropractic treatment come in?<\/p>\n

Chiropractic Treatment<\/b><\/h3>\n

Most people see chiropractors for back injuries, to help with pain management, and to maintain a good range of motion in the spine.<\/p>\n

At ScoliCare, we have a multidisciplinary team<\/a> across the globe, many of which include chiropractors trained specifically in scoliosis management.<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

On the flip side of this, a scoliosis patient undergoing general chiropractic care is more about addressing the symptoms of scoliosis than correcting the scoliosis itself.
\nThe complexity of scoliosis is beyond the scope of general<\/i> chiropractic treatment, but adjunctive chiropractic treatment, particularly when combined with specific types of corrective treatment, may have the potential to improve other symptoms the patient is experiencing, such as pain.<\/p>\n

Chiropractic BioPhysics\u00ae (CBP) is the pinnacle of chiropractic treatment because it\u2019s highly specialized, evidence-based, has a sound scientific foundation, requires specialized training and certification (7, 8), and complements additional scoliosis-specific treatment disciplines like scoliosis specific exercise rehabilitation and corrective bracing.<\/p>\n

CBP is evidence-based chiropractic treatment that combines the best of what chiropractic, anatomy, physiology, physical therapy, and biology have to offer; chiropractic treatment that\u2019s scoliosis-specific relies on a series of techniques and manual adjustments to significantly improve spinal alignment and reduce the curve size (7, 8).<\/p>\n

Chiropractic BioPhysics\u00ae focuses on postural correction so the spine is held in a healthier position and spinal decompression can help stretch the spine, taking pressure off discs, nerves, and muscles (7, 8).<\/p>\n

Reducing the size of a scoliosis means decreasing the uneven forces of the condition and restoring the body\u2019s alignment in addition to the spine\u2019s position (5).<\/p>\n

Chiropractic treatment can also help increase the spine\u2019s flexibility, making it more responsive to treatment, providing pain relief and taking pressure off compressed nerves (7, 8).<\/p>\n

When combined with the power of scoliosis-specific exercise, the improvement to the spine\u2019s position is better supported and stabilized as the spine\u2019s surrounding muscle balance and strength are improved.<\/p>\n

So chiropractic treatment for scoliosis may be effective as an adjunctive treatment, but it needs to be a part of an entire wholistic scoliosis-specific rehabilitation program. The team at ScoliCare are well versed in working alongside other health professionals to ensure a holistic approach to treatment.<\/p>\n

ScoliBalance\u00ae<\/b><\/h4>\n

ScoliBalance\u00ae is a complete program for addressing scoliosis in children, adolescents, and adults of all ages (9).<\/p>\n

Designed by chiropractor, Dr. Jeb McAviney, and physical therapist Rose Mirenzi, ScoliBalance\u00ae combines the best of what scoliosis-specific chiropractic care and established scoliosis-specific exercise-based treatment programs like the Schroth Method and the Scientific Exercise Approach to Scoliosis (SEAS) has to offer (9).<\/p>\n

Delivered in accordance with SOSORT (International Society on Scoliosis Orthopedic and Rehabilitation Treatment) guidelines (5), ScoliBalance\u00ae is individualized to address the specifics of each patient\u2019s condition type, severity, location within the spine, posture, and spinal flexibility (9).<\/p>\n

Not only does ScoliBalance\u00ae include scoliosis-specific care based on concepts such as Mirror Image\u00ae from Chiropractic Biophysics, ScoliBalance\u00ae uses the power of corrective exercise to realign the spine, improve the spine and body\u2019s alignment, flexibility, while also targeting the spine\u2019s surrounding muscle balance and strength (9).<\/p>\n

Through the use of Mirror Image\u00ae exercise, patients are taught how to be mindful of spine and body position; the way patients hold their bodies during movement and rest can help counteract the scoliosis and improve posture for a straighter alignment and a more balanced spine and body.<\/p>\n

ScoliBalance\u00ae is also used for larger curves in conjunction with the prescription of corrective 3D bracing, and relies on the ScoliBrace\u00ae<\/i> (9).<\/p>\n

ScoliBrace\u00ae<\/b><\/h5>\n

The ScoliBrace\u00ae<\/a> is a custom 3-dimensional scoliosis brace that\u2019s evidence-based and customized to address the specifics of a patient\u2019s posture, scoliosis type, and severity (4).
\nThe ScoliBrace\u00ae individualizes potential corrective results through the use of an overcorrective approach to improve spinal alignment and balance through spinal coupling, and as the spine is held in an overcorrective position in the brace, the brain and body are being retrained together to maintain this position out of the brace.<\/p>\n

The ScoliBrace\u00ae, harnesses principles of spinal coupling, over-correction and Mirror Image\u00ae<\/a>, particularly for adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis, (7, 8). These are principles that are fundamental components of Chiropractic Biophysics (7, 8) methods and teachings. This complements each other as they are working towards the same goal of improving the spine\u2019s position and body posture (7, 8, 9).<\/p>\n

What\u2019s also unique about the ScoliBrace\u00ae is that while many traditional scoliosis braces immobilize the spine, the ScoliBrace\u00ae was designed with movement in mind, so it can be integrated into a multifaceted treatment plan that combines the power of scoliosis-specific exercise rehabilitation in the form of ScoliBalance\u00ae (9). Clinicians who are also trained and certified in the Chiropractic Biophysics method, as well as ScoliBrace\u00ae and ScoliBalance\u00ae, provide a well-rounded and comprehensive treatment plan. By these different facets of treatment working together, the spine\u2019s flexibility and strength can be preserved (9), scoliosis can be impacted on multiple levels, and surgical intervention may be avoided (10).<\/p>\n

\"A<\/p>\n

To be clear, general Chiropractic treatment can include adjustments of the spine, and should not be used as a replacement for industry accepted and evidence based methods such as 3D corrective bracing and scoliosis specific exercise (5). Non-surgical management should be prioritized in the form of 3D corrective bracing and scoliosis specific exercise programs as per international guidelines and research (5). Other treatments are considered adjunctive.<\/p>\n

Conclusion<\/b><\/h2>\n

When it comes to scoliosis, it\u2019s important to understand that as a progressive condition, how a scoliosis diagnosis is responded to with treatment can have far-reaching effects.<\/p>\n

Effective scoliosis treatment should be started as early as possible; while there are never treatment guarantees, there are direct links between early diagnosis, proactive treatment, and treatment success.<\/p>\n

Scoliosis that\u2019s left untreated can continue to progress and cause complications that may have been avoidable had a proactive nonsurgical treatment plan been applied earlier.<\/p>\n

The ScoliCare approach<\/a> to nonsurgical scoliosis treatment is modern and integrative; it combines the potential of, scoliosis-specific exercise, and 3D corrective bracing, combined with the use of Chiropractic BioPhysics\u00ae principles, and it values the timing of when<\/i> treatment is started.<\/p>\n

While surgical intervention still has a place in scoliosis treatment, scoliosis surgery is invasive and doesn\u2019t have as much potential to preserve the spine\u2019s natural strength and flexibility as the ScoliCare approach can offer.<\/p>\n

When chiropractors are well trained in scoliosis specific care that utilizes 3D corrective bracing and scoliosis specific exercise rehabilitation, they may be well placed to be part of a holistic team to manage scoliosis.<\/p>\n
