In our office, we employ the Clear-Institute Method—a revolutionary approach that is proven not only to stabilize scoliosis curves, but actually reduce them!
Your treatment consists of three main parts:
Mix—Soften the tissues and muscles affecting your scoliosis, making them pliable and workable…in other words, fixable!
Fix—A comprehensive, manual adjustment based on 41 different measurements and 21 different angles to actually correct abnormal spinal curvature
Set—Retrain your body to hold your corrections permanently
We’ll work to soften your tissues, ligaments, and muscles, employing the following techniques:
1. Wobble Chair. A height-adjustable stool that provides 360 degrees of rotation, 40 degrees of side to side flexion, and 35 degrees of front-to-back flexion to provide lumbar disc mobility and rehydration.
2. Repetitive traction. Helps elongate the spine and rehydrate the discs.
3. Vibration traction. The premise behind the Vibrating Traction is simple. Research done by top scientists has suggested that occupational drivers tend to suffer from a higher-than-average incidence of low back pain, due to the effect of the engine’s vibration upon the spinal discs. It turns out that the exact same frequency has highly beneficial effects in relaxing ligaments and discs, as well as rehabilitating the spine! Vibration traction uses the same principle to help make your spine and ligaments accept correction.
4. Flexion distraction. Gently stretches and flexes the spine, again making you flexible and pliable enough to accept correction and hold it long-term.
You’ll receive a corrective adjustment based on 41 different measurements and 21 different angles as documented from your X-rays. The adjustment is painless and gentle, but extremely effective at correcting even serious scoliosis!
You’ll learn to actually retrain your body through a series of innovative treatments…
1. Gate Therapy. Recent scientific articles have proven that there are differences in how people with scoliosis walk and move, as compared to people without scoliosis. After a while, the brain develops a pattern to help the body balance. With gait therapy, we actually retrain the brain and body to walk correctly, and decrease spinal curvature in the process!
2. VIBE Vibration Therapy. A vibration is like a wave, repeated over and over again. Research has shown that different tissues in the body will respond to different frequencies. You'll stand on a platform that is set to gently vibrate the tissues in your spine, which increases blood circulation, decreases pain, and promotes joint strength and flexibility. PLUS, vibration therapy actually helps you RETRAIN your body and hold your corrections!
3. Scoliosis Chair. The Scoliosis Chair actually puts your body in the exact OPPOSITE direction of your scoliosis!
