A member asked:
Could a chiropractor or osteopath treat scoliosis, and which would be more effective? would either be covered by insurance?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Either: However Osteopathic physicians (DO) have an unlimited license in which they can provide additional care, the same as an MD alongside their manipulation options. Most treatments are covered by insurance to an extent, some insurances cover treatments fully, others only cover part or the treatment.
