CLEAR Institute doctors focus on helping their patients avoid scoliosis surgery and avoid scoliosis bracing. CLEAR's alternative scoliosis treatment has resulted in curve reductions, better posture, and decreased pain. Here, some of their patients share their experiences and treatment results.
“Everything is wonderful here in Mississippi, and my week treatment in Dallas was amazing. That was the toughest, most painful, life-saving, and rewarding week of my life. My lumbar curve went from 42 degrees to 29 degrees and thoracic curve went from 31 degrees to 26 degrees!! Before I met you, I was filled with such hopelessness and fear from seeing myself get worse each year. Now, I have hope. I have my life back. I finally feel wonderful. Since receiving my treatment and doing my exercises daily, I have not had a migraine in three weeks! Yeah! Thank you so much for using the talents God has given you. I could tell you "thank you" a million times and it would still not be enough! Your dedication, courage, persistence, and compassion have saved my life. I pray more chiropractors step forward and become "spinal experts" because they may just save a Mississippi girl's life.” Joan
“I look forward to my care. I’m excited to look at my x-rays, to do physical exercise, to think about my future, and even to just go clothes shopping or to the beach. The sense of empowerment that I gained as a result of CLEAR’s™ approach to treating scoliosis is priceless. CLEAR™ has changed my hopelessness regarding scoliosis. Not only have you changed my perspective of the condition I suffer from, but your overall determination and intelligence in life is truly amazing." Katie
"My shoulders now hang evenly, and my neck posture has greatly improved. I am most excited about the permanent curve reduction that I have experienced: 30 degrees to 12 degrees in just a little over 4 months." Jessica
“I wanted to share the results of my daughter's scoliosis treatment. We first discovered she had scoliosis in Feb 2007. She had a 50 degree thoracic curve and a 26 degree lumbar curve. We were told anything above 35 degrees was a candidate for surgery. Since her curve was a 50, we were told she should have the surgery. The doctor said he had an opening within a week! We did lots of research online. I came across the CLEAR Institute's® website and read all I could. We started going to a local chiropractor to see if he could reduce her curves before we decided on surgery. My daughter is very active and I did not want to see her lose any range of motion from back surgery. In Jan 2008, I revisited different websites to re-read a lot of the literature on scoliosis treatments and options. I read all I could on the CLEAR Institute's® website and decided to take my daughter for a two-week intensive treatment. It was the BEST thing we could have done!! It was not easy because the treatments are intense. But, after two weeks, her curves had gone down to a 22 degree thoracic curve and about a 10 degree lumbar curve! She was no longer even a candidate for surgery. She has continued her treatment at home and we trust that on our follow up x-rays, there will even be more improvement. I would encourage EVERYONE to seriously consider going to a CLEAR Institute® certified doctor for scoliosis treatment. They understand how the spine works, and they customize a treatment plan unique to your situation. During the time we were there, they made us feel like we were part of one big family. Each of them was personally interested in how my daughter was progressing and we all celebrated when she made such great improvement. If any of those reading this are faced with scoliosis treatment decisions, make sure you do your research. The medical community is making great strides in non-surgical options, and my family is certainly a believer in the effectiveness of them!” Janell and Rebekha
