What is Scoliosis?

Any abnormal lateral curvature (to the left or right) of the spine that can be so mild you don't even recognize it or so severe that it can affect your mobility, posture and even heart and lungs. Read on to learn how to evaluate scoliosis, what treatment looks like, and where to begin.

X-Rays for Scoliosis

Most Chiropractors Will Evaluate with Digital X-Ray

There are several tests to check for scoliosis. The most efficient and reliable check is with a full-spine digital x-ray. Green Space Health offers in-house digital X-rays, allowing us to begin treatment on day one. 

Scoliosis & Surgery

Surgery for Curvature of the Spine & Bracing for Scoliosis

The need for surgery to correct scoliosis is typically determined by the extent of the curvature of the spine. Evan a mild scoliosis may require some form of therapy or treatments. 

Moderate cases may require bracing. 

More severe cases may require surgery, but it is not your only option.  

Can I still be adjusted after having scoliosis surgery?

Yes! A properly performed adjustment can restore movement to joints that may have become restricted from abnormal curvature.
