How can i treat severe scoliosis pain?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A few ideas: Exercises designed to balance muscle tension.Osteopathic manipulation to optimize vertebral & neural function & muscle balance.Find a fixable cause: ex. short leg syndrome (can be improved by wearing a heel lift).Prolotherapy to strengthen ligaments/prevent further curving.Neuroprolotherapy to overstretched/inflamed nerves to quiet/stop pain.These are not easy, but are more than symptomatic care.
