Question: What do you call alternative medicine that works?
Answer: Medicine
"We are all African."

I suspect some of that has to do with parents' feeling that they should be doing *something* instead of just waiting. Perhaps if they had something else they thought was effective for those smaller curves, they would be willing to wait to start bracing.

I think people just have different natures. I have an experimental nature, so I'm always willing to run an experiment of one. I try not to go *against* doctor orders, but I also do a fair amount of reading to figure out if I can do something to augment whatever treatment I'm given (assuming the treatment itself isn't immediately curative.)
I like science, but I know there's only so much money and time to go around, and it could take a very long time for science to get to my particular concerns.

You are kidding right? That paper wouldn't even be allowed as evidence in a college paper, let alone peer reviewed! They didn't even use the same vertebrae, which in and of itself invalidates the whole thing. I do agree with them NOT to break things free by adjusting the "high side of the rainbow". This is what they TEACH chiros to do. This is exactly what my chiro did, and I progressed.Be happy!
We don't know what tomorrow brings,

Stop holding our collective breath?
Coming up on 8 months and I think we might stop waiting... a Clear chiro has recently admitted there is no evidence their approach works.
Further, he claims approaches should be judged just on their perceived merit as opposed to evidence. I guess by that he means like the swimsuit competition in beauty pageants as opposed to the talent portion.
I might still update this thread depending on how the feeling strikes me. But I think the point of waiting for a pub on evidence that Clear is effective is not going to pan out.Sharon, mother of identical twin girls with scoliosis

Maybe one in the chute???
There was mention of a 140 patient study from Clear that is being readied for submission to some chiro journal per Josh Woggon. But he anticipated it would get picked apart. Hmmm. And we can presume the other Clear chiros have read it and at least one still admits there is no evidence Clear works. Moreover, he doesn't want Clear to be judged by their results, only the "merits" of the approach. I don't see how that helps in this case, though.Sharon, mother of identical twin girls with scoliosis
