SCOLIOSIS


Wondering if you have scoliosis?

Wondering what is scoliosis? There are two types of scoliosis.

The first type is called structural scoliosis. This is when a person is born with deformed bones in their or in their neck. When this occurs, instability in the spine occurs and bones in the spine shift out of place sideways and twist causing altered body mechanics, we may even see the ribs and sternum twists causing compression in the heart and lungs. If structural scoliosis is really bad, an orthopedic doctors will fuse the bones or put rods in to straighten and stabilize the spine. After these spine surgeries, the individual will have restricted movement and will eventually develop arthritis in areas that compensate for the bones and joints that cannot move. If no surgery is done, the person will have abnormal bio mechanics, muscle spasms, organ dysfunctions, and a lot of pain.

They can receive care from a chiropractic doctor. The chiropractic doctor will assist them in decreasing how far the bones have shifted out and twisted out of place. No doctor can reshape a deformed bone. They can make the spine move in its best ability this will take significant stress out of their body muscles joints and organs.


The second type of scoliosis is functional. Ninety percent of the human population acquires this scoliosis. We acquire misaligned and twisted bones from physical chemical and emotional stress that occurs once suddenly or by repetition over time. Once your bones misaligned and twist out of place, your body is unable to self correct muscles start to compensate ligaments deform and become unstable. Cartilage and connective tissue begin to break down in time, any misaligned bones develop arthritis and eventually osteoarthritis contributing to chronic pain inflammation and restricted body movement. Additionally over time when bones are misaligned the misalignment increases in severity. This is because gravity constantly pushes down on us making our structure weaker. This is why seniors shrink over time. If their spine is unstable they will get shorter.

What's the solution?

If you have suffered a recent car accident, trip and fall, sports collision, or repetitive work injury, you may be having some joint problems in the spine and neck we have joints that are connected together with ligaments but in the spine we have a total of nine surrounding each bone. These ligaments are designed to maintain stability for the spinal column so that the bones do not misalign and compress, pinch, or sever the spinal cord, which would impair oxygen, blood and energy control to our organs and muscles. In our spine and neck we also have discs. These discs are called intervertebral discs. The discs are primarily cartilage on the outside with a center that is a gel water substance. Our discs act as shock absorbers when we walk, run or jump to allow forces to be spread out along our spine. These discs also allow space between each bone in the spine for nerves to exit out into the body. All of these ligaments and discs can be injured once or repetitively. Bones will shift out o...

Do you suffer from arthritis in your wrists, shoulder, back, hips, knees, or feet? What is really occurring is that the joints have been misaligned, creating abnormal wear and tear on the joints, ligaments, and cartilage. Unfortunately, this can occur from physical, ,chemical, or emotional events that cause stress to our bodies. Once the joint is misaligned, it is unable to self-correct. It does not matter if you stretch, exercise, massage the joints, take pain pills, take vitamins, ice, take a hot bath, or try to sleep it off. The joints will stay misaligned. In time, this becomes osteoarthritis. Doctors have proven that a satisfactory treatment for arthritis is exercise, which gets the joints moving and increases oxygen and blood to the joints, which in turn decreases inflammation. Unfortunately, this does not correct the problem and does not stop the progression of arthritis. Doctors have found the best treatment for arthritis in our joints-a combination of...
