Is there a way to stop scoliosis before it gets serious without a brace such as sitting up straight?

The clear answer is unfortunately- No. There is no way. Major proportion of scoliosis cases are idiopathic meaning there is no cause known. Chief theories of causation widely accepted in the spine world include muscle imbalance causing the curve and inherent abnormality of the vertebrae. Good posture is known to improve postural kyphosis which is a back to front curve versus side to side curve in scoliosis which is stopped from growing by Risser body cast in very small children with infantile curve, bracing in adolescents with idiopathic scoliosis or surgery which includes placement of growing rods. Postural correction, stretching, traction, carrying unequal weights on shoulders have been proven to be ineffective in stopping the growth of the curve.

Do Chiropractors treat idiopathic scoliosis?
Doctors of chiropractic would certainly be willing and qualified to examine someone with scoliosis, and there are indeed strategies that can be employed to potentially slow or halt the progression of idiopathic scoliosis. A chiropractor will be able to determine how severe the scoliosis is, how often it needs to be monitored, at what stage a surgical referral is required, and what kinds of options exist for treatment. In some cases, a chiropractor may even be able to help reverse a scoliosis without surgery. For example, if you have a functional scoliosis (caused by unequal leg lengths, unilateral muscle trauma, unilateral hip problem, etc.), then if you are not too old (younger than 55) and the curve is not too severe (less than 30 degrees), a chiropractor will likely be able to help reduce or eliminate the scoliosis. Treatments would include one or more of: orthotics, spinal manipulation, stretching, muscle strengthening, etc.
