Pain Services
Scheuermann’s disease is a condition which causes persistent low-grade back pain, increase kyphosis in the mid-back, and “rounded shoulder” posture. It is most common in the adolescent male. In this condition, there is injury to the surfaces of the vertebrae resulting in a number of wedge shaped thoracic vertebrae.
Regular chiropractic care can help reduce symptoms of pain and discomfort as well as optimize spinal biomechanics and stresses. This is important as this condition predisposes the individual to the development of osteoarthritis later in life.
