Chiropractic care is valuable in managing scoliosis by addressing spinal alignment, muscle imbalance, and functional impairment. Through spinal adjustments, therapeutic exercises, postural education, and ongoing monitoring, Dr. Caroline von Fluegge-Chen of Balance Atlanta Family Chiropractic in Buckhead helps patients with scoliosis maintain optimal spinal health and function, minimizing pain and disability associated with the condition. Early intervention and comprehensive management are essential for maximizing outcomes and enhancing the quality of life for individuals with scoliosis.
