Do you or a loved one suffer from scoliosis and seek effective treatment options?               

Understanding and Managing Scoliosis:

Scoliosis, a condition characterized by an abnormal lateral curvature of the spine, can significantly impact one's quality of life. At Stoneview Injury & Wellness Chiropractic, we are dedicated to providing comprehensive care and personalized treatment plans to help manage scoliosis and improve overall spinal health.

What is Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a spinal deformity that causes the spine to curve sideways, often in an "S" or "C" shape. This condition can affect individuals of all ages, but it is most commonly diagnosed in children and adolescents. Scoliosis can result from various factors, including congenital disabilities, neuromuscular conditions, or idiopathic causes where the exact reason is unknown. Early detection and intervention are crucial for managing scoliosis effectively.

Symptoms and Diagnosis of Scoliosis

Are you experiencing symptoms that might indicate scoliosis? Common signs of scoliosis include:

• Uneven shoulders or waist
• One shoulder blade appearing more prominent than the other
• Asymmetrical ribcage when bending forward
• Chronic back pain or discomfort
• Difficulty breathing (in severe cases)

Diagnosing scoliosis typically involves a physical examination and imaging tests such as X-rays to assess the degree of spinal curvature. Our team at Stoneview Injury & Wellness Chiropractic will conduct a thorough evaluation to determine the best course of action for your specific condition.
