This was different from the past a some chiropractors simply saw me once a week with limited results. With my adjustments I did two types of traction, one for my scoliosis and one for my neck. I had never done traction before and have seen numerous chiropractors and physical therapists. I was also given a heel lift measured to the right height through a couple of xrays.

I feel awesome and have seen immediate results. Within a couple of days my pain had completely subsided from my back and neck. I also saw a 50% improvement in my scoliosis in only 2 months(23 visits). Many doctors previously had said I would need surgery for my scoliosis. I have more flexibilty which has helped me perform at a greater level in sports and regular day to day activities like yoga, hiking and just waking up in hte morning from a restful sleep without pain in my neck.

Before I started seeing Dr. Hanson on a regular basis I had trouble sleeping, participating in different sports at school(especially cross country), flexibility, and confidence as my scoliosis affected my posture and hip placement and made me look slightly awkward in a bathing suit during swim season at school!
