He landed on his right side on the corner of a bale hard enough to knock the wind out of him. After a couple of minutes, John was back on his feet and playing as if nothing ever happened. I first met John when he was 11 years old. There was a primary left thoracic curvature of 20 degrees, a secondary lumbar curvature of 13 degrees, and a tertiary cervical curvature of 12 degrees. John started under care and for the next 9 months he received specific chiropractic care to correct his vertebral subluxation complex and the scoliosis.
Many people believe that a scoliosis is something that develops at random for no explainable reason.
Some children get it and some children don't. Well, nothing could be further from the truth. Left untreated, the subluxated spine heals incorrectly and then may grow improperly, resulting in the development of scoliosis. So scoliosis is not something that just happens at random. Most scoliosis develops as the result of childhood lateral spinal trauma, spinal injury, and uncorrected subluxation.
