Yoga therapy for scoliosis
If you have scoliosis, a sideways curve of the spine, you probably don’t have severe back pain. Nevertheless, you’ll want to look after your spine in the best possible way. With age, the lateral curve may increase and restrict your breathing mechanism. The growing tightness with age can also lead to neck, shoulder and back pain. Yoga therapy for scoliosis offers specific and tailored practices that target the two sides of your spine separately. The aim is not to straighten the spine, as this is impossible in many cases, but to keep your spine in an optimal condition. If you look after your back well with the appropriate practices, you are more likely to prevent pain and restrictions in the future.
