How do you deal with/get rid of scoliosis through chiropractic medicine?

I’m speaking for a friend of mine who has minor scoliosis, and whose hips are misaligned because of this. They would like to be able to find a way to cure this through chiropractic treatment and various places (in New Hampshire) where it could be done, and also whether it would be a permanent solution or not. We’d both really appreciate your help on this because its causing my friend some serious pain and frustration.

Is chiropractic treatment mostly placebo? Are there studies to prove the theory of subluxation?

I have seen studies that shown benefits for low back pain. But it seems that it is only marginally better than conventional medicine. So could it be a placebo effect? Also, is the diagnosis of a short leg substantial or of clinical value?

Has anyone heard of chiropractic treatment for infertility?

I have been reading about people who conceived after getting chiropractic care. Has anyone heard about this before? I’ve never been to a chiropractor in my life, because frankly, I thought they were nonsense unless you had gotten into a car accident or were injured, but I feel like we’ve tried almost everything and it could be worth a shot. What do you think?
That is what I have noticed in the past from people I know who have gone to chiropractors. They always seem to be complaining that their back, neck, etc. hurts and they’re always going back.

Anyone been seriously injured as a result of chiropractic treatment?

I suffered a stroke last year as a result of chiropractic manipulation of my neck. I am recovering well but would like to find a support group made up of patients with similar stories as mine.

Where can I find a group to get involved with?
I am in the US.

First time with chiropractic treatments, but I'm in more pain after 6 treatments. Should I keep going?

After my x-ray, the chiropractor said my neck curve was opposite what it should be, and my spine twists a little bit as it goes up my back (acute scoliosis), so he prescribed 3 treatments a week for 4 weeks. I came in with mild back pain and a neck pain only if I leaned my head back.

After the 3rd treatment, I got a horrible persistent neck pain that got so bad I could only turn my head 3 inches in any direction, and I couldn’t sleep. It got better and then flared up to being worse. Now it’s a bit better, but I’m almost a week out from that pain and have been through 6 treatments. He says everyone has ups and downs. Should I keep going? Or could there be something that needs an MRI?

Can a claimant pay cash for chiropractic treatment when NYS Workers Comp limits them?

For example: A person suffers a personal injury and is on workers comp. This person receives 4 treatments a month, however NYS workers comp board feels they should only receive 3 treatments per month. Can the claimant pay cash for the extra treatment? Please provide a reference if possible. Thanks!
