Many people experience symptoms of scoliosis without even realizing the cause. We see patients with uneven shoulders, a noticeable curve in their spine, one hip higher than the other, or clothes that hang unevenly. Others talk about frequent back pain, stiffness, tiredness after standing or sitting for long periods, or restricted movement when bending and twisting. Some teens or adults notice their gait feels slightly off, or that certain exercises just aren’t as easy as they used to be.
Scoliosis can also cause tension headaches, breathing difficulties, or muscle fatigue as the body works harder to stay balanced. We find that many Campbell, CA patients seek us out after trying to self-manage discomfort or when over-the-counter pain remedies just aren’t doing enough. No matter your age or how long you’ve had these challenges, the right care may help you move and feel better.
