Scoliosis Treatment

Scoliosis is an abnormal curvature and twisting of the spine.

As the spine curves sideways forming an “S” or long “C” shape rather than a straight line, the individual vertebrae also change their position, rotate and twist pulling the ribs out of shape. This may create prominence or “hump” on one side of the back.

Scoliosis may occur due to the result of disease or injury however 70 – 80 % of cases are classified as idiopathic; that is there is no known cause.
All these changes in our body are possible because of muscles weakness and imbalance. Weak, overloaded, stretched or shortened muscles lose their supportive function. These muscle imbalances cause further problems like uneven weight distribution and enforce the “scoliotic balance” of the body

​

This may lead to:
– Pain due to pressure on the spinal cord and nerves
– Degenerative changes in the spine

– Vertebrae and discs becoming compressed and wedged on one side.

-Vertebral slippage combined with rotation and even subluxation may result.
– “Frozen chest”: limited chest expansion, which can lead (in severe cases) to decreased breathing capacity
– Overall limited spine motion.
– Flat back syndrome

​

Therefore treatment must primary improve posture, restore balance, starting from the feet, legs and hips so the body can regain its original shape and be able to hold the spine in its normal upright position.

Using a mixture of  neuromuscular techniques(NMT) and the Schroth method helps to improve posture, reduce pain, relax muscles, improve flexibility, increase lung capacity and stop curve progression.


The treatment is not a quick fix (but in very mild imbalances patients can notice improvements quite rapidly). It requires commitment, education and self-awareness.

A treatment based on the Schroth Method consists of special breathing techniques and exercises to correct the spine in three dimensions because scoliosis is a three dimensional deformity.


The purpose of these exercises is lengthening, deflection and de-rotation of the spine plus de-rotation of the ribs and pelvis.

​

Scoliosis can develop at any age, but in children it is a much serious problem because it can progress rapidly.

Symptoms

Scoliosis can often go unnoticed in its early years and is rarely painful in its formative stage.
It may be detected by symptoms such as:
-One shoulder appears higher than the other.
– One shoulder blade is more prominent that the other.
-The head seems shifted off to one side.
-A tendency to lean to one side.
-The waist is uneven.
-One hips seems higher than the other.
-A rib hump on one side of the back.
-A greater distance between the arm and the body on one side than on the other when the arms are hanging down loosely at the side.

Treatment :

The mixture of Schroth and NMT techniques sums up to:

  1.  Posture assessment and education.

  2.  Orthopaedic massage and neuromuscular techniques including soft tissue release, muscle energy techniques, positional release, strain-counter strain and more.

  3.  A home programme that involves exercises and appropriate breathing techniques.

Please bring/wear sports bra and shorts.

Dry Needling 
 

Acupuncture

This is a general term for a therapeutic treatment that involves insertion of a sterile, single use Acupuncture needle into the muscle (not necessarily into a Myofascial Trigger Point) to reduce tension, pain and dysfunction. Once in place, needles are left for a period of a few to 30 minutes. It has been seen that acute conditions respond to short needling time, whereas chronic conditions respond to longer durations. Insertion of the needle stimulates peripheral nerves, sending messages to our brain telling it to release opioid peptides – endorphins.

​

Endorphins are not only our “feel good hormones” but also powerful natural pain relievers, they enhance the immune system, reduce stress and produce a feeling of euphoria.

In the treatment of Myofascial Trigger Points (tight, tender knots within the muscle) insertion of the needle can elicit a local twitch response (LTR). It might be painful for a second, but it is a good sign and won’t last long.

The condition for which Dry Needling is indicated for

 

  • Myofascial pain

  • Low back pain

  • Peripheral nerve injuries

  • Sciatica

  • Knee pain

  • Tennis elbow

  • Rheumatoid arthritis

 

Dry Needling with Electrical Stimulation

This is a modified form of the treatment in which an electrical currant is applied between pairs of acupuncture needles. The device used controls the frequency and strength of the electrical current being delivered and it may have a greater effect than dry needling on its own. This may help to decrease pain and keep it at bay for longer in lower back pain, peripheral nerve injury, increased tissue repair, reduction of muscle spasticity and a greater effect on the immune system.

​

Safety

Electrical Stimulation should be avoided in the following conditions:

  • Pacemaker/ spinal cord stimulator/ deep brain stimulator/ insulin pump

  • Pregnancy (first trimester)

  • Severe arterial disease

  • Bleeding disorder

  • Undiagnosed fever

  • Malignant tumours

  • Unstable epilepsy

  • Needle phobia or over anxiousness

​

At no time should there be pain during this treatment

Massage

Relaxation Massage 
 

If you are looking for a truly deeply relaxing massage, then the traditional Swedish massage is for you. The therapist will use flowing strokes that are gentle, but firm, in order to completely relax the muscles and work out any tension or knots. The amount of pressure used can vary from light to firm, depending on the client’s needs. There are five basic strokes that are common in traditional Swedish Massages which include:

  • effleurage – a long gliding stroke

  • petrissage –  kneading, rolling, wringing and lifting strokes

  • friction –  a warming stroke

  • tapotement –  a percussion stroke

  • vibration – rocking, shaking and trembling movements

​

All of these strokes are utilized in order to give you a relaxing and sensational massage. Throughout the massage, we use a relaxing oil blend to tantalize your senses and deeply relax your muscles. Chamomile oil naturally replenishes your skin and will:

  • make your skin appear brighter, clearer and refreshed

  • soothe any skin irritation you may have

  • help reduce and prevent any breakouts or blemishes.

​

Lavender is a wonderful pain reliever that, applied topically, can seep into your muscles and release any inflammation and soreness. The smell is also beneficial for your body as it has been linked to pain relief, and is often used to treat headaches naturally.

​

With a true Swedish massage, your overall health and wellness will improve. Not only do the oils used provide health benefits, but the massage itself will:

​

  • help detoxify your body

  • increase your circulation

  • alleviate your muscle tension

  • dilate your blood vessels allowing for an increased blood flow

  • deliver an extra boost of oxygen and nutrients to muscles and joints

​

Swedish Massages is great for anyone who is simply looking to relax and gain any of these benefits, but it is also perfect for people who suffer from anxiety, insomnia, depression, arthritis and chronic pain disorders.

Reflexology 
 

Reflexology

Reflexology is a theory and therapy that uses the feet as map, or mirror for the whole body. Developed by Eunice Ingham in the mid-to-late twentieth century.  By manipulating, and applying pressure to certain parts of the feet, the whole body can be 'retuned' and brought back into balance. Reflexology entails the therapist applying various degrees of pressure to sections of the feet. 

​

Benefits of Reflexology: 

​

  • ​The client regains physical and mental balance 

  • Relieves pain, stress and tension throughout the body, 75% of diseases are estimated to be stress-related 

  • Restores hormonal and physiological balance 

  • Dissolves physical and energetic stagnation

  • Backpain

  • Migraines

  • Irritable bowel syndrome (IBS)

  • Astha 

  • Respiratory Problems 

  • Bladder problems 

  • Menopausal and period pain 

​

Reflexology stimulates the body into healing itself by improving circulation, reducing stress, pain and restoring natural balance. This is because your nervous system- which controls almost every aspect of your health and wellbeing- can be influenced by outside factors, including touch.
