Can Chiropractic Help with Scoliosis?

At Stiles Chiropractic, we are happy to provide the best in chiropractic care to all ages and stages of life, including kids. Some conditions present themselves more commonly in children and teenagers than adults, including scoliosis. If your child suffers from scoliosis, here’s how chiropractic can help.

What is Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a condition in which the spine curves sideways. Roughly 3 million new cases of scoliosis are diagnosed in the United State each year. For those patients, quality of life can be diminished. Sports and other well-loved activities can be limited due to reduced respiratory function, pain, and diminished self-esteem.

Most cases of scoliosis are identified as idiopathic scoliosis, which is a type of scoliosis that presents itself in children between the ages of 10-12 years of age. Most cases have no known cause and there is no known prevention method. While there is no clear cure for scoliosis, there are ways to improve quality of life and provide relief.

How Chiropractic Can Help with Scoliosis

If you’ve been following our blog, you know chiropractic is great for all ages – even kids – particularly for matters of the spine. Therefore, chiropractic can be a great treatment for managing and relieving discomfort and pain caused by scoliosis. Routine chiropractic adjustments provide patients with scoliosis a treatment that is safe, non-addictive, and non-invasive that is also an alternative to prescription or over-the-counter pain medications that are often prescribed to help patients manage pain.

Dr. Tracey Stiles provides gentle, effective, and targeted adjustments that reduce joint misalignments and restrictions in the spine and other joints in the body to help reduce inflammation and improve function of both the affected joint and the nervous system as a whole. When joint mobility is increased and nervous system function improved, the health of the spine benefits and the body has a better ability to manage scoliosis symptoms.

Some of the benefits that scoliosis patients can enjoy from chiropractic include:

  • Improved range of motion and flexibility

  • Decreased inflammation

  • Reduced discomfort and pain

  • Increased activity and lifestyle

Patient Reviews

"My overall health has also improved because my allergies and my arthritis are also not as severe as they used to be. Dr. Stiles has always been very accommodating with her hours and appointments, and the staff is always friendly and welcoming. Over the years, I have recommended my sister, my best friend, my cousin and other friends to this office for chiropractic care."

"Excellent patient care and a convenient location.  Dr. Stiles technique is gentle and effective.  The office staff is professional and flexible.  The office hours offer a wide array of times for busy working people.  I switched from a chiropractor that I loved for the location and have not lost anything in terms of service.  I highly recommend for pain management, maintenance and wellness services."

-Ruanda G.

"Not the typical doctors office.  Dr. Stiles & staff are friendly and are flexible with appointments. And my neck and my back feel great!"

-Kevin T.

"Dr. Stiles is very gentle and caring and helpful in explaining what was wrong with my neck and spine. She came up with a treatment plan for me for the next few months. I was re-examined a few weeks ago and showed a lot of improvement! All without surgery. I highly recommend this chiropractic office."

-Monique P.

"Everyone in the office is very nice and helpful. I started going to Dr. Stiles because I had vertigo for more than a year. My doctor just told me it would go away eventually and prescribed Dramamine (which just made me feel sick). I decided to try this method as a last effort to get rid of it and it's worked. I couldn't be happier with the results from my visits here. I would (and have) recommended her to friends and co-workers."

-Jennifer M.

"I've been seeing Dr. Stiles for the past 10 years and in that time, my sciatic nerve has stopped flaring up. I also have had no more middle ear infections or ringing in my ears. I first started going to Stiles Chiropractic for what I thought was the beginning of carpal tunnel syndrome, my wrists, hands and fingers were numb and tingling. After a few adjustments, I was feeling much better and have not had that issue since.

-Dee M.

"Dr. Stiles has been my chiropractor for almost a decade. Regular visits to Dr. Stiles help me prevent tension from escalating and causing severe, debilitating pain that I've had in the past. I used to "throw my back out" once or twice a year, resulting in my being unable to move for three or four days. With ongoing maintenance, I'm happy to say that that rarely happens anymore, and if it does, Dr. Stiles knows me well enough to help fix it right away."

-Cathy H.

"I see Dr Stiles every week for neck pain and she is amazing! She is very kind and responsive to her clients. Highly recommended."

-Samantha M.

"Dr. Stiles is stellar! I am a resident of Los Angeles and any time I'm in town this is my go to place for chiropractic. Dr. Stiles is very thorough and educated on every joint in the body. I feel at ease and in good hands and most importantly well-informed through our entire sessions. I always walk out feeling taller and poised with a healthy body!"

-Kaila H.

"Wonderful! Best Ever! – I have been to chiropractors throughout my life (good and bad ones) but I have had the best experience here with Dr. Tracey. She gave me a very detailed exam and took the time to go over my exam and explain a treatment plan that will help me feel better in the long run. And I am all about preventative maintenance! She also explained my adjustment so well, I didn't freak out. Her office is wonderful, Friendly and warm!!"
