Scoliosis

https://drcarlosarzabe.com/dr-carlos-arzabe/ Scoliosis is a sideways curve of the spine that causes stiffness and pain. It is called idiopathic disease  because the cause of it is unknown. Scoliosis is more common in females and it begins in childhood.   However, merely 2 percent of the population is affected. If it is detected early, scoliosis treatment will prevent it from worsening over time. People with scoliosis have a sideways curve in their spine that makes an “s” or “c” shape.

Chiropractic care can help improve this condition. We look at your overall health examining your spine as well as other factors of your lifestyle. To help identify the problem’s cause, we will discuss symptoms and previous injuries, your family’s health history, and recreational and work related activities.

Regular visits to observe the progression of the scoliosis, are an integral part of living a full and happy life. Scoliosis can be treated in various ways to help alleviate pain and restore normal functionality. Regardless of the treatment used, physical therapy may be added to scoliosis treatment to increase muscle strength and mobility. If you have any questions please contact us.
