Rosmalen Chiropractors Can Help Scoliosis

Rosmalen Chiropractors May Help Scoliosis

Among common conditions, scoliosis is a possibility that can cause much discomfort and immobility. Between 5 million and 7 million people in the United States are affected by scoliosis. Rosmalen chiropractors have the ability to provide assistance to many scoliosis patients, making their daily lives more manageable.


WHAT IS SCOLIOSIS?

Scoliosis is a condition of the spine that causes a lateral or lateral curvature of more than 10 degrees. Most of the time, the cause of this unique curvature is unknown, but things like neurological conditions, trauma, or tumors are responsible in about 20 percent of cases. Scoliosis with no known cause is called idiopathic.

If someone has functional scoliosis, it means that a postural problem, muscle spasms or legs of different lengths are the cause. This type of scoliosis can usually be remedied. If the scoliosis is considered structural, different posture strategies are usually ineffective. Scoliosis is more common in girls and usually develops between the ages of 10 and 15. It can also be passed on, so if a parent or sibling has it, a younger child is more likely to have it.


COMMON SYMPTOMS OF SCOLIOSIS

Some common symptoms of scoliosis include intense pain, decreased range of motion, decreased lung function, and decreased heart function. Psychological problems, including decreased self-esteem, are also a common problem in people with scoliosis. About 80 percent of people with scoliosis have a curvature of fewer than 20 degrees, but because it most often occurs during adolescence, it is possible to see large increases in curvature in a short period of time. Scoliosis is usually diagnosed through physical evaluation and X-rays to determine the degree of spinal curvature.


CHIROPRACTIC TREATMENT FOR SCOLIOSIS

Some of the most effective treatments performed by Rosmalen chiropractors for scoliosis include spinal manipulation, electrical muscle stimulation, and therapeutic exercises. This is an area that has not received much attention or research, but many scoliosis patients who have undergone chiropractic treatment report an improvement in their condition.

Even if the curvature of the spine is not fully corrected, any pain or problems that contributed to the scoliosis discomfort will be addressed. Sometimes the change in posture and gait caused by scoliosis overcompensates other areas, causing pain and creating new problems. Your chiropractor at Chiropractie Rosmalen will look for the underlying cause of all your structural aches and pains and find the solution that best suits your specific situation.
