Scoliosis is a lateral deviation of the spine. It may be due to a malformation, disease or paralysis but the vast majority (70%) is “idiopathic”, meaning without known cause.
The following studies deal mostly with idiopathic scoliosis.
Several studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of chiropractic in correcting scoliosis. The younger the patient, the more effective the chiropractic treatment is.
