KST A to Z
Scoliosis

Southfield, Michigan
I have a new patient, a 79-year-old woman with severe rotatory scoliosis that was completely fused with hardware when she was 14 years old. It's amazing the mobility this woman has considering what was done to her.
She presented with low back and hip pain. I followed the OD, got permission from her body, tapping lightly wherever the OD says.
After her first adjustment, she was able to walk without pain. She did some water exercises the next day and felt a twinge in her hip. I followed the OD again; she got a lot of relief in her hip and low back.
