Chiropractic & Scoliosis Care
When a person has scoliosis, it means their spine is abnormally bent into an s-shape when viewed from behind. This gives the illusion that their back appears to be curved. This condition usually happens gradually and gets worse over time. People with scoliosis often have trouble with pain and stiffness in their back as well as difficulty standing up straight or breathing properly.
Given that the spine houses and controls the nervous system, it’s integral to the body. If the spine is misshapen, then there’s a possibility that the nervous system won’t function optimally. This interference can impact many of the body’s important processes – like digestion and thinking clearly – if left unchecked. Additionally, spines that are misshapen often cause problems with mobility and flexibility.
Chiropractic Care and Scoliosis Can Provide a Resolution to Pain and Discomfort
The spine is the body’s core, and when it becomes deformed (as in scoliosis), the whole structure suffers. Misalignment in shoulders, hips, pelvis, knees…and all the way down to where your ankles and feet touch the ground is an example of this.
The spine is the mechanism that integrates all of these connections in the human body, and when they are misaligned, the parts of the body become imbalanced in proportion. If they don’t appear to be out of balance visibly, one shoulder is higher than the other, the pelvis is tilted, or one leg appears shorter than the other, it implies that there’s something wrong with how your body compensates.
Scoliosis is generally discovered in children between the ages of seven and ten. Public schools provide scoliosis screening for teenagers to detect scoliosis early and implement preventative or therapeutic measures before the bones and joints harden in adulthood.

Here at the Scoliosis Center of Utah, we provide treatments that fit all ages and stages of life. Whether you or a family member was recently diagnosed with scoliosis or has been living with the condition most of your life, there are several options available to make everyday activities more comfortable.
When the body is out of balance and crucial parts like the shoulders, hips, knees, or other elements are titled or not aligned correctly because of scoliosis, it can become painful and difficult to move around. Scoliosis may also cause problems with how the nervous system functions when the spine is misaligned which digests organs properly.
The enteric nervous system is the name for the nerves that run throughout your digestive tract. They connect to your spine, so a misalignment in your spine can cause issues with these nerves. If they become pinched, inflamed, or weakened over time, it might lead to problems with digestion including diarrhea, constipation, nausea, and acid reflux. Your spinal and nervous systems also have a hand in many additional bodily processes beyond simply aiding digestion.
People with scoliosis or other spinal problems often feel fatigued, irritable, and experience neck and back pain. They tend to have poor posture, can’t stand for long periods comfortably, and find it difficult to move their bodies freely.
Having scoliosis or spinal misalignment can be extremely painful and very difficult to live with. Some people, however, report no pain from scoliosis. Instead, they feel that their posture has been damaged, flexibility and mobility have decreased, so it would be better to correct the spine imbalance.
