Tulsa Scoliosis Chiropractor
Need Help Scoliosis?
Chiro Effect is proud to serve as your local Tulsa scoliosis chiropractor. For those who have scoliosis, chiropractic treatment is proven to be extremely helpful in easing pain and suffering from scoliosis. Your back is made up of vertebrae, discs, joints, nerves, and muscles. If your spine is out of alignment, it can quickly become irritated from stress, injury, and misalignment. In addition, the misalignment of your spine can cause pain or issues in other connected areas of your body. Depending on the extent of your scoliosis condition, Chiro Effect can help treat your symptoms!
Your spine is essential to your body’s daily function. It’s more than just a part of yourself that makes up part of your anatomy. It plays a central role and influences the rest of your body. If your spine isn’t positioned correctly to allow you to function normally, receiving gentle chiropractic adjustments can help restore your spine to its proper alignment.
What causes scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine that occurs most often during the growth spurt before puberty. While there are a few known causes for this condition, like cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy, the cause for most scoliosis cases is unknown. Most scoliosis cases are mild, but some continue to develop more severely as a person grows. If a scoliosis case becomes severe, it can be disabling. When scoliosis is severe, it can shorten the length between the shoulders and the waist, making it hard for the lungs to function properly.Â
If a child is diagnosed with scoliosis, they’re monitored closely to observe the curvature of their spine. There often isn’t a need for treatment. Some people with this condition wear a brace to prevent their scoliosis from developing further. Others may require surgery to keep their scoliosis from worsening or to straighten their spine.
Common Symptoms of Scoliosis
When the nerves surrounding your spine become compressed, you may experience pain affecting the surrounding areas. Pain can be caused by inflammation, muscle spasms, misaligned vertebrae, and slipped or herniated discs.Â
Symptoms and signs include:
- Uneven shoulders.
- One shoulder blade appears more prominently or is higher than the other
- Uneven waist or hips
- One hip is higher than the other
- Difficulty breathing due to a reduced area in the chest for the lungs to expand
- Chronic back pain or muscle spasms
In more extreme cases, the spine will grow to twist and rotate while curving side to side. This causes the ribs on one side of their body to stick out further than the other side.
