Scoliosis pain management is essential for persons with scoliosis. Chronic pain may require treatment by a chiropractor in Oviedo. Treating scoliosis early can prevent complications involving the rib cage and lungs.
What Is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a medical condition that causes a curvature in the spine. The curve may appear C-shaped or S-shaped. Scoliosis can occur in children and adults and result in a lack of symmetry between the shoulders and hips. This spinal abnormality usually places pressure on the spine, joints, discs, and soft tissue in the back and hips as well as nerves in the middle back (thoracic spine) and lower back (lumbar spine).
How Our Scoliosis Care Plan Works
1. Feel & Move Better
Once you start Chiropractic care, you begin a journey to stabilize your problems, stop the damage, and start the healing. Another great side effect of the initial intensive care is that you begin to feel better, sleep better, and move better.
2. Fix Your Problem
The second stage is the Corrective Phase, where we fix your problem by re-training your spine and body to get you healthier and stronger so that you can enjoy doing the things you want to and have to without experiencing a relapse every time you try to use your body.
3. Get Your Mojo Back
The third stage is the Protective Stage, also known as wellness or maintenance care. This stage helps you protect and maintain your new levels of strength, health, and function, preventing you from slipping backward as you enjoy, engage in your best life, and get your mojo back!

Treating and Managing Scoliosis Pain with Chiropractic Care in Oviedo, FL
A chiropractor in Oviedo can help with scoliosis pain management through chiropractic care. Chiropractic techniques are used to treat the underlying cause of the back pain instead of just the symptoms.
You may choose chiropractic care if you wish to avoid invasive surgical procedures or prefer natural methods of treating back pain. One, or a combination, of the following chiropractic techniques may be used to treat and reduce pain and other symptoms. Treatment targets the spine and musculoskeletal tissues:
- Spinal manipulation or adjustment
- Spinal decompression
- Therapeutic massages
- Physical therapy
- Myofascial release
- Pelvic blocking
- Physical therapy exercises
- Flexion-distraction
- Deep tissue cold laser
Spinal decompression may be particularly helpful if scoliosis pain is caused by compressed spinal nerves. Releasing the pinched nerves also helps improve associated symptoms such as tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness in the shoulder, arms, leg, or feet.
