Scoliosis

While scoliosis cannot always be “cured,” conservative treatment such as the Schroth Method, chiropractic, and physiotherapy, it can often be effectively managed. The goal is to prevent progression, improve posture, reduce pain, and enhance quality of life.

No. Our treatments are gentle, safe, and focused on patient comfort.

The earlier, the better. Adolescents are more responsive to treatment because their spines are still growing. However, adults can also benefit from scoliosis management, especially for reducing pain and improving function.

Common signs include uneven shoulders, one hip higher than the other, leaning to one side, or clothes not fitting evenly. A clinical assessment and spinal X-ray are the best ways to confirm scoliosis.

The Schroth Method uses customized exercises, postural correction, and breathing techniques based on your specific curve pattern. It strengthens weak muscles, lengthens tight ones, and trains the body to maintain a healthier spinal alignment.

Chiropractic care does not “straighten” scoliosis curves, but it improves mobility, reduces stiffness, and relieves pain, making it easier to maintain proper posture and perform Schroth exercises effectively.

Not all scoliosis cases require surgery. Many mild to moderate cases can be managed with conservative care. Surgery is usually recommended only for severe curves or when there are breathing and functional issues.

It varies depending on age, curve severity, and goals. Some patients see improvements within a few months, while others require ongoing care for long-term spinal health. At our centre, we customize a care plan to fit your condition and lifestyle.
