Adult scoliosis is either a curve that developed in adolescence and persisted, or a new curvature caused by degenerative changes in the spine. The goals of care differ from the pediatric version. The curve is not going to be corrected through growth. The question becomes how to manage the pain and functional limitation the curvature produces.
Beacon Clinic of Chiropractic approaches adult scoliosis treatment in Grover Beach through targeted adjustment and postural support alongside pain management. Dr. Bronstein is candid about the boundaries of what chiropractic care can achieve for a mature curve, and builds a plan around realistic functional goals.
