Scoliosis: Chiropractic Adjusting Protocols & Home Care Strategies – Support Structural Balance and Long-Term Spinal Correction

Scoliosis presents unique challenges in chiropractic care—requiring more than standard adjusting to create long-term, sustainable change. To effectively support spinal correction, chiropractors need a comprehensive approach that includes precise ancillary techniques and patient-specific home care protocols.

In this online course, you’ll gain the tools to evaluate, adjust, and support patients with scoliosis using gentle, targeted techniques that address spinal distortion patterns, postural imbalances, and compensatory tension. You’ll also learn how to implement simple, effective home care strategies that enhance and stabilize in-office corrections.

This course is ideal for chiropractors looking to deliver deeper, more consistent results for both pediatric and adult patients with scoliotic presentations.

What You’ll Learn

  • Comprehensive assessment protocols to identify scoliosis patterns and related structural compensations
  • Specific SOT®-based and cranial adjusting procedures to support spinal realignment and neurological balance
  • Soft tissue and reflex techniques that enhance structural mobility and reduce spinal tension
  • Home care routines and exercises to reinforce in-office corrections and improve posture, proprioception, and muscular support
  • Strategies for patient education and engagement in long-term corrective care

Resources Provided

  • Video class modules
  • Evaluation & technique presentations
  • Practical demonstrations
  • Calls to action (CTAs)

Why Take This Course?

  • Scoliosis requires a multi-dimensional approach that goes beyond spinal adjusting alone

  • These techniques are gentle, effective, and easily integrated into family, pediatric, and wellness-based practices

Who Is This Course For?

Chiropractors who want to:

  • Expand their effectiveness with scoliosis cases at any age
  • Integrate soft tissue, cranial, and postural correction techniques into their scoliosis protocols
  • Provide long-term solutions that empower patients and create lasting spinal change

Feedback From Our Students

  • Ximena Martinez

    My three takeaways:
    1. The impact of adjustments on CSF, lymph and dura.
    2. The amount of detailed information that is provided for each topic and adjustment and that the doc teaching is very knowledgeable and provides cases about certain topics.
    3. I loved that it is a small group weekend because we are able to get a lot more

    With continued education with this program, I would love to help infants and children in my practice.

    The relevant techniques were all the cranial techniques due to wanting to work with Pediatrics.

    Yes, I would recommend this course. The weekend was very informative about a topic I do not see very often. The course provided us with a lot of experience, and we could ask questions without falling behind. The course also highlights the importance and differences from an osseous adjustment.

  • Bella Vignali

    My takeaways:
    New dural release moves. All of the dura talk. Connecting all the things I’ve learned.

    I’ll be bringing this info to my practice a lot.

    Dural release adjustments have been the best.

    Yes, I would recommend this course. It was amazing to get more tools in the tool belt.

    This was absolutely great.

    • The compression into cervical segment looking to adjust

    Future Impact
    Less is more & trusting the power of the body to heal. Knowing the pediatric CSF flow intimately.

    Relevant Techniques
    Pediatric cranials & SOR

    Recommend?
    Yes, because there is true experience behind these techniques & approach to practice.
