Can Scoliosis Be Treated With Acupuncture

Acupuncture treatment for scoliosis is only applicable to some patients and can only be used as an adjunctive treatment for such patients. Acupuncture can be used for scoliosis in the following ways: First, for scoliosis caused by muscle spasm or poor posture, acupuncture can be used as the main treatment. By stimulating the relevant acupuncture points and meridians, the spastic muscles can be effectively loosened. In addition, the patient’s bad postural habits can also be corrected, through which the patient’s shape can be improved. Secondly, most scoliosis patients can be treated with acupuncture on the basis of regular treatment. Most scoliosis patients may have spinal degeneration, deep fascial inflammation, and spasm of the muscles around the spine, and acupuncture can play an effective role in treating the above pathologic changes.
