      HI Janice :hugs:

      Mine is girl (dd= dear daughter), she does not need brace so cannot provide more infor ... hope some other parent with similar experience will share more with you šŸ™

      It is a long process that require commitment, may be you want to visit a few experts including osteopath (I understand chiropractic origins from osteopathy) before you decide the best path. The first step is difficult as we are not sure what is the best interms of efficacy and efficiency :nailbite: and the :moneyflies:

          Yes,I agree what she said.It takes time to recover and gain again power of those muscles.


          Any way,as an alternative just do some exercise and some workout for fast recovering.If ever you visit here searching for http://www.leavittchiropractic.com/ , I will guide you to my place.Good luck!

              Hi bigsnoopy!!
              oops! Myself think these both are the same
              \"\"Chiropractic & Physio\"\".

              Oh Please, If am wrong. Please someone correct me then.

              Well, my boy went to Physiotherapy for a few session.
              The therapy was gv out the treatment as the same as Chiropractic too.
              Both need to lie down on the bed. And theraplist will being massage.
              Unfortunately, Physiotherapy was told that to put on braces to order helps straighten the spine.
              And Chiropratic did not mentioned any about brace for the moment of time. My primary 2 boy are having Chiropratic Session. 3 days in a week.
              Lastly, both of them just a few min. spend for the massage. LOL
              Both are so costly:D

                I think Physio uses more equipments/ tools to help in management of the condition as compare to Chiropractic.

                Chiro focuses on using \"adjustments\" ie hands of the chiropractor. I think that's why will need to go more often as the spine tends to \"adjust\" itself back till it gets more acustomed to the new position, then the frequecy of visit can be reduced. Thats all I know šŸ˜„

                Janice_0950, hope your child is getting better!

                  Yes. No tools and equipement requires. So why may need to go for adjustment daily.:(

                    @Janice_0950 Did the therapist show you any exercise to help?

                      Whilst some physical manipulation aspects of Chiro and Physiotherapy are similar, the scientific and medical basis are very very different.

                      In a nutshell, I am comfortable with some of the physical therapy aspects of what my chiro does for me, but he does not push on other aspects, which in my opinion, after researching into what goes into Chiro, borders on quackery.

                        It really depends what you are looking for, and the skill of the practitioner. Important thing is to get a proper diagnosis of the underlying problem, and for that I'd suggest you consult with a western medical doctor to begin with.

                        Cheers
