Scoliosis in Calgary AB

Chiropractic Therapy For Scoliosis In Calgary AB

Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal sideways curvature of the spine. It can develop during childhood or adolescence, though it may also occur in adults. In 80% of cases, scoliosis has an unknown cause. Common symptoms may include uneven shoulders or hips, muscle imbalance, stiffness, and back pain.

Chiropractic care does not cure scoliosis, and it cannot reverse the structural curvature of the spine. However, chiropractic assessment can help diagnosis and identify postural and biomechanical factors that may contribute to discomfort or reduced function. Chiropractors in Calgary AB also provide conservative management of scoliosis for individuals experiencing pain, muscle tension, or movement restrictions associated with the condition.

Treatment may include chiropractic adjustments to improve joint mobility, soft tissue therapy to address muscle tension and imbalance, and rehabilitative exercises aimed at enhancing strength, stability, posture, and body awareness. The goal of care is to help manage symptoms, support function, and improve quality of life.
