Clear Scoliosis
At Atlanta Scoliosis Center we are dedicated to utilizing the world’s most advanced scoliosis correction method, developed by CLEAR Institute, to provide optimal individualized treatment for each of our scoliosis patients one case at a time. Our Scoliosis correction method is a revolutionary approach that has been proven capable of not only stabilizing but also substantially reducing scoliosis curvature without the need for a brace or surgery.
The scoliotic spine has tight muscles, ligaments, and tendons that have evolved over time with the scoliosis. Our first step in correction is to “loosen them up,” also known as the MIX. Spinal flexibility is one of the key factors in scoliosis reduction. The MIX develops this imperative flexibility in the spine. A CLEAR clinic has specialized equipment that has been designed solely for this purpose. This process is generally painless and relaxing for the patient.
In the scoliotic spine. the discs become wedged and immobile. Adding to the problem, discs no longer receive blood supply after the start of puberty. Therefore, the only way fluid and nutrients can get into the discs to keep them healthy is through motion. The specific movement of the wobble chair pumps nutrients into the discs and increases spinal flexibility. The wobble chair heats up those tissues, making everything pliable and preparing your spine for the other MIX procedures.
The core stim creates two different vibratory frequencies that are applied to targeted areas to relax overactive muscles and loosen tight ligaments and tendons directly supporting the spine.
The vibratory traction is designed to relax the spinal ligaments, tendons, and discs. This device vibrates at a slow, even frequency, which has been proven to target these tight areas to effectively relax and loosen them. The gentle vibrating motion is felt up and down the spine.
The Leander Eckard table flexes up and down. loosening the tightened muscles and ligaments that are present in a scoliotic spine. This motion also pumps nutrients into the spinal discs, improving spinal health. Patients are positioned to open up the scoliotic curve and rehabilitate the wedged discs.
Once the supporting spinal structures are loosened and pliable, the doctor will then direct the spine into proper alignment through safe and effective spinal adjustments, referred to as the FIX. Our method of adjusting is based off of years of clinical research by hundreds of doctors. Atlanta Scoliosis Center® has compiled this research and selected the “best of the best” and applied it to the scoliotic spine. Adjustments are designed for each patient from 41 different measurements and 23 different angles the doctor has determined from the initial X-ray exam.
The last step is to reeducate the body’s supporting muscles to hold and maintain your newly corrected positions. We call this the SET. The body’s weaker areas must be rebuilt. Our approach to this is through a precise spinal weighting and exercise system. This system features specific isometric spinal exercises. head, shoulder, and hip weights designed expressly for the patient. This rebuilding allows the body’s nerve system to become reprogrammed against gravity, making each correction permanent. A larger curvature (generally above 25 degrees) will require the use of the Scoliosis Traction Chair (STC). The STC removes the stress of gravity on the spine and allows the patient to effectively “work out” in a scoliosis-free environment. The STC uses high-level vibration, which causes the muscles of the spine to contract at a higher frequency than normal, accelerating healing. The STC. along with all of the SET procedures, reeducates the brain to hold the new corrected spinal position.
