Scoliosis: Understanding the Condition and Chiropractic Treatment
Scoliosis can lead to uneven posture, discomfort, and limited mobility, making it harder to stay active and pain-free. While it’s a condition that can’t be cured, chiropractic care can help manage symptoms and improve spinal alignment. At Peak Chiropractic, we offer personalized care plans to alleviate pain, enhance posture, and support your overall health and well-being.

What is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is a condition characterized by an abnormal curvature of the spine, which can appear as an “S” or “C” shape when viewed from behind. This condition often develops during adolescence, but it can also appear later in life due to factors like degeneration or injury. Scoliosis ranges from mild to severe and can affect mobility, posture, and overall quality of life.
Causes of Scoliosis
While some cases of scoliosis are idiopathic (having no known cause), other factors may include:
- Genetic predisposition
- Congenital spine abnormalities
- Neuromuscular conditions
- Injuries or trauma
How Chiropractic Care Can Help
At Peak Chiropractic, we focus on providing care that supports the spine's natural alignment and reduces the impact of scoliosis on your daily life. While chiropractic care doesn’t "cure" scoliosis, it can:
- Alleviate discomfort and pain
- Improve posture and spinal alignment
- Enhance mobility and flexibility
- Support overall spinal health
Our gentle, precise techniques are tailored to meet your specific needs and help you achieve long-term relief.
Symptoms of Scoliosis
The symptoms of scoliosis vary depending on the severity of the condition but may include:
- Uneven Shoulders: One shoulder may appear higher than the other.
- Asymmetrical Waist: The waist may look uneven or tilted.
- Protruding Ribs: One side of the ribcage may appear more prominent due to the spinal curve.
- Back Pain: Especially in adults, scoliosis can lead to chronic pain and stiffness.
- Limited Mobility: Severe cases may restrict range of motion and flexibility.
If you recognize any of these signs, it’s essential to seek professional care. At Peak Chiropractic, we offer a thorough assessment to determine how we can help manage your scoliosis symptoms effectively.

I have previously seen another practitioner in the valley, but I was never able to get relief
I love Peak Chiropractic! I’ve suffered from upper cervical pain for about 10 years and it was gradually getting worse. I have previously seen another practitioner in the valley, but I was never able to get relief and have my adjustment hold. I highly recommend Peak chiropractic.Read Original Review
Was able to stand up straight for the first time in years, hip discomfort and shoulder pain were immediately relieved
After trying chiropractic treatments and months of physical therapy that produced little to no results we had about given up on the medical field. Fortunately Connie found Peak Chiropractic! After her first adjustment she had amazing results, she was able to stand up straight for the first time in years, hip discomfort and shoulder pain were immediately relieved which led me to quickly make an appointment. Range of motion in my neck was pretty much non-existent and after my first adjustment was tremendously improved! Connie and I both continue to see great improvements in our overall health and are amazed at our progress. It is definitely a journey well worth taking. Drs. John and Kyara are both very knowledgeable and professional with the added bonus of being wonderful and caring people, their passion to help is very evident in everything they do. Highly recommended, it is a life changing experience!Read Original Review
