Scoliosis affects more than just the position of the spine. It can have an effect neurologically, structurally, and it affects the motion and mobility of the spine. But, can it affect the digestive system? Dr. Nalda explains the role between the brain, nerves, and spinal cord to better understand how they can affect the rest of the body. When the vertebrae start shifting out of alignment, as seen with scoliosis, the spinal cord and neurology are negatively impacted. This negative impact can then be seen in how other organs function within the body. Chiropractors call this effect of misalignment and nerve pressure subluxation. Dr. Nalda explains that if you affect the neurology directly controlling the digestive system, the digestive system can slow down or can even be altered. Not only can scoliosis affect neurology, but when it continues to progress into a compressive condition, as seen in adults, it shortens the torso. The shortening of the torso can then compress the organs along the digestive tract, limiting the space that they need to function properly. Lastly, rigidity of the spine can be directly related to how well the digestive system moves. The more the spine is able to move, the more the digestive system is able to move food particles through. When Dr. Nalda sees a scoliosis patient who deals with digestive issues, he believes that the way toyou get to the cause is to address the size of the curve. Reducing the curve and the compression can then help improve the digestive issues without the use of laxatives or other medications. The way this can be done is through a series Dr. Nalda calls rehabilitation, therapy, exercises and corrective bracing. If you are wondering if your digestive issues are related to your scoliosis, the answer is yes, most likely they are.
