Many adults discover scoliosis on an X-ray after years of “stiff on one side.” The aim isn’t perfect symmetry—it’s comfort and capacity. With smart movement and gentle care, you can sit, walk, and train confidently.
What Matters Most
- Motion: Thoracic and hip mobility reduce hot spots.
- Strength: Train both sides with extra attention to the weaker pattern.
- Breathing: 360° rib expansion softens rigidity along the curve.
Starter Routine (Daily)
- Open-books x 6/side; cat–cow x 8–10.
- 90/90 hip transitions x 8; glute bridges 2×8–10.
- Dead bug 2×6/side; side planks 2×15s/side (modify as needed).
Clinic Approach
We identify stiff vs. lax segments, guide gentle mobilization, and build a strength plan that respects your curve. We coordinate with your MD for monitoring if needed. The metric is function: sitting tolerance, walk time, and sleep quality—not X-ray perfection.
