I have minor scoliosis, the curve moves my neck to the side. can i straighten my neck somehow to cause it to have less of a lean? thanks

Varies : You can ultimately work on your range of motion and flexibility of the area with physical therapy and stretching. If you do have a mild curve it would be pretty uncommon to have much of a deformity going into the neck. Don't hesitate to be seen and examined directly to discuss further treatment options.
