Hello All,
I am fairly new to this forum. I found it searching online trying to find out info on scoliosis. I have just been diagnosed 2 weeks ago. Last week I had xrays and this week I am begining my time at the chiropractor. I heard the Osteopath only helps for the pain, so i didn't go there. I may stop by to see the difference in opinions etc from the chiro.
My chosen chiropractor is one my family and friends have been seeing for years (not for the same problem though), so I know she is good at what she does.
I have 2 curves, at stage 2 scoliosis and after looking and discussing xrays, I had my first session at the chiropractor. Wow, It hurt more than I expected. I will be re xrayed in one years time and see how it looks and how i feel over time.
I am starting a thread after reading everyone's mixed views about chiropractors and people's stories about curves changing in such a short time after the chiro... yes everyone is a bit sceptical, me too, but now i will see for my self. I don't expect things to change and to have a great straight spine, i am hoping to just keep my back moving and not as tight as it is at the moment & learning proper posture etc. Those who are not having any surgery don't really have much options, just excercises such as yoga, pilates, swimming etc.. So we'll see how this goes people!
