Scoliosis

(laeticia) #1

Other treatments can help to fix a curved spine or stop it
from getting worse, such as osteopathy and chiropractic. By
lifting, stretching, and massaging the muscles and joints of a
person, osteopathy is a way to diagnose, treat, and prevent
health problems. By mobilizing the thoracic and lumbar
spine, osteopathy may aid, attempting to improve the range
of movement in both regions. Without compromising the
stability of the spine, pelvis mobilization is often important to
support the length of the leg and, in turn, to help straighten
the lower back and further up the spine. Chiropractic is a
procedure in which the hands are used by a doctor called a
chiropractor to help alleviate bone, muscle, and joint issues.
Chiropractors alone are unable to straighten a spine
completely, it is shown that it can show improvement in the
degree of spine curvature, discomfort, and impairment
among scoliosis sufferers. Before starting any physical
therapy You should speak to a health care specialist like a
GP.
