Scoliosis is a major problem that can be debilitating and get worse and worse over time. Chiropractic care can help relieve pain and discomfort for scoliosis, and if caught early enough, help resolve the issue completely.

What is scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a condition that affects the spine. It can make the spine curve sideways, and it can make it difficult to stand and move correctly. Scoliosis often happens during childhood, but it can also develop in adults. There are different types of scoliosis, and the cause is usually unknown. However, some cases of scoliosis are linked to conditions like cerebral palsy and muscular dystrophy.

There are several different types of scoliosis that can affect children and adults. The most common form is known as idiopathic scoliosis, which causes a right-sided curve in adolescents ages 10 to 14 years old.

Ankylosing spondylitis is another type of scoliosis that affects young people between ages 15 to 20. It can also occur in older adults over 50 with long-term back pain.

Other types include congenital scoliosis or structural scoliosis caused by bone or muscle imbalances, tumors, injuries, weight problems, fractures, arthritis deformities, aging, and more.

Many times, those dealing with scoliosis can get relief from chiropractic care.

Patient reviews

What our Chesterfield patients say

“If you are looking for a great chiropractor, look no further. Dr Emily is knowledgeable, kind, and cares so much for you as a patient. She practices the Gonstead system of chiropractic and also incorporates acupuncture to give you a well rounded approach to your health issues. I highly recommend checking out Full Circle Health.”

“I cannot say enough good things about Dr. Emily and her entire staff. I started just a few months ago with daily migraines and intense neck/back pain. Just a short time with Dr. E, the migraines are gone and we have a solid plan to reduce the pain in my neck/back. I could not be happier and more impressed with my experience at Full Circle Health.”

“I am not going to lie that I was skeptical of chiropractic care. I had been to chiropractors in the past and lacked the results I wanted to see. But Dr. Emily is different. She takes her time to get to know her patients, their bodies, and their goals for treatment. I am a bedside registered nurse who spends 12+ hours on my feet at a time. Dr. Emily has helped me with the lower back pain that comes with that job. I always feel better after seeing her. Dr. Emily helps me feel my best so I can provide the best care to my patients. The great care starts with the ladies at the front desk. Tracy and Leila always have a smile on their face and are always willing to help. The whole team is fantastic, and I will continue to recommend Full Circle Health to anyone that will listen.”
