Chuna Therapy

It differs from person to person, and we will not claim it is "almost painless". Stiffness for a day or two afterwards is a common reaction, but this is not a treatment to endure — please tell us right away if it hurts. It is limited or not performed in osteoporosis, a history of compression fracture, recent fracture, previous spinal surgery, or pregnancy.

Q. Can Chuna correct scoliosis?

A.

Mild scoliosis yes; severe cases require bracing or surgery.

📝 Detailed Answer

Chuna for scoliosis: ① mild scoliosis (under 20°): 30–50% improvement possible, ② moderate (20–40°): may improve but limited, requires bracing combined, ③ severe (over 40°): surgery often necessary, ④ growing children: most effective intervention period, ⑤ adults: pain relief but limited curve correction. Best for functional scoliosis (postural). Combined with corrective exercises. Requires long-term consistent treatment 6+ months.
