Scoliosis is defined as a curvature of the spine that is more than 5. Scoliosis can cause pain, discomfort and malfunctioning joints which can lead to early arthritis. In severe cases, it can compromise lung function and put pressure on internal organs such as the heart. At Coyle Chiropractic, we use modern day chiropractic techniques to detect and correct this often times debilitating condition.
Patient 1: A 19 year-old female presented with low back pain on her left side. She had been treated by a local physical therapist without results. Initial x-rays revealed a 18 scoliosis. She received 24 chiropractic adjustments over 12 weeks. After treatment her scoliosis was reduced to 6 and she was no longer experiencing lower back pain. Patient 2: A 40 year-old female presented with chronic low back pain on the right.
