Scoliosis Back Pain Treatment from Our Chiropractors in Yorkville, IL

As a child, you likely underwent a scoliosis check to ensure your spine was not out of alignment. At Advanced Physical Medicine of Yorkville, IL, we know many people suffer from back pain. Our chiropractors could alleviate this if they had only undergone scoliosis treatment. Fortunately, we can help you find relief from Scoliosis and the pain it causes.

What Is Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a medical condition in which your spine is curved from side to side. While the curve is usually mild, it can be severe enough to cause pain and difficulty moving. Scoliosis can occur at any age, but is most common in girls aged 10 to 15.

Scoliosis can occur for various reasons, including:

  • Family history
  • Cerebral palsy
  • Muscular dystrophy
  • Congenital disabilities

What Are the Symptoms of Scoliosis?

Most people with scoliosis don't experience any symptoms. For those who do, the most common symptom is back pain. Other symptoms can include:

  • A visible curve in the spine
  • Uneven shoulders or hips
  • Clothes that don't fit right
  • Difficulty breathing
  • Back pain

Most cases of scoliosis are found during a routine physical exam. However, our chiropractors can also help diagnose you and may ask to see your back. They may also order X-rays to confirm the diagnosis.

How Is Scoliosis Treated?

Mild scoliosis usually doesn't require treatment. However, if you're suffering from debilitating back pain, our chiropractors may recommend a course of treatment. Treatment options for scoliosis include:

  • Chiropractic Adjustments: Adjustments help align the spine, which is beneficial for scoliosis and can also help relieve back pain.
  • Exercise: Exercise can improve your posture and strengthen the muscles around your spine, reducing the appearance of curves.
  • Bracing: In some cases, our chiropractors may recommend wearing a brace to prevent the curve from getting worse.
  • Lifestyle Changes: In addition to exercise and chiropractic care, our chiropractors may also recommend lifestyle changes, such as improving your posture and reducing the appearance of curves.

An Overview of Cryo Contouring from Advanced Physical Medicine of Yorkville

If you are in the Yorkville area we want you to know there are non-invasive treatment options available for a variety of health concerns.

Furthermore, some people might have reached their weight loss goals; but, their bodies still don’t look quite how they thought it would.

At Advanced Physical Medicine of Yorkville, we are here to help everyone with their weight loss and fat freezing goals!

Cryo Contouring Can Be Used To Treat Stubborn Fat Cells

Cryo contouring can be used to target those stubborn pockets of fat that don’t seem to want to go away. Once people reach adult age, the number of fat cells they have is going to be relatively constant. These fat cells might change size from time to time; however, it can be hard to eliminate these stubborn pockets of cells. Even though people are dedicated to diet and exercise, these pockets just don’t seem to want to go away. The location of these pockets can vary in location from person to person. Everyone carries fat in different areas of their body.

With cryo contouring, a trained provider is going to use a technique called cryolipolysis to freeze away those fat cells. This treatment was under development for years. Now, this treatment is available to help people eliminate those last few pockets of fat. Fat freezing can lead to proven results.

How Does Cryo Contouring Work?

When someone comes to see us for cryo contouring, they are going to receive a non-invasive procedure that can remove pockets of fat. This means that the recovery process following cryo contouring is much shorter than for alternatives, such as liposuction. For example, people who receive cryo contouring are usually in and out in a matter of hours. People can even go back to their daily routines almost immediately. For this reason, cryo contouring has skyrocketed in popularity. Now, cryo contouring is more accessible than it has been in the past.
