At Innovo Chiropractic in World Golf Village, St. Augustine, we understand the unique challenges scoliosis presents.

Whether you’ve recently been diagnosed or have been living with scoliosis for years, our chiropractors are here to provide holistic, personalized care to support your spinal health and well-being.
What Is Scoliosis?
Scoliosis is more than just a curve in the spine—it’s a complex condition that can involve spinal rotation and muscular imbalances. While scoliosis can develop at any age, it most commonly appears during adolescence. The degree of curvature can vary, from mild to severe, with symptoms that may include:
Uneven Shoulders or Hips: Visible asymmetry in your posture, such as one shoulder or hip appearing higher than the other.
Spinal Rotation: Twisting of the vertebrae, which can alter the appearance of your back.
Muscle Imbalances: Tension and imbalance in the muscles surrounding the spine, which may cause discomfort or fatigue.
Reduced Range of Motion: In more severe cases, scoliosis can limit spinal flexibility and overall mobility.
