30 Scoliosis Exercises: Effective exercises to relieve back pain and improve spinal health (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798340562111)

I was diagnosed with scoliosis when I was a child. I went to the doctor twice a year, where I was regularly checked using X-rays and measurements. Despite these regular checks, I received no concrete support. It seemed as if there was no way to relieve my scoliosis. As I got older, I went to physiotherapy, where exercises were carried out to strengthen the abdominal and back muscles.

However, there were no specific exercises to treat scoliosis.

It was only later that I discovered Katharina Schroth's breathing therapy, which I learned during a spa stay during the holidays. But breathing alone did not offer enough support to make a stiff spine flexible again. Targeted leverage was necessary for this.

As a physiotherapist with my own scoliotic spine, I devoted myself to researching scoliosis. I realized that it is essential to mentally divide the arches of the spine. I faced the challenge that what benefits one bow can harm the next and looked for ways to avoid this. I will share the more in-depth findings on this in another work.
I critically questioned each method for its effectiveness and usefulness.
I rejected symmetrical exercises and instead developed asymmetrical exercises that could provide targeted support.
The exercises I developed are divided into three stages:

• Promote mobility of the spine
• Train the flexible spine towards a straight alignment
• Integrate the exercises seamlessly into everyday life so that they can be practiced without additional time expenditure.

Most of the exercises are designed so that they can be easily integrated into daily routines, for example when drying off after a shower or waiting for the train.
The special thing about these exercises is that they enable me to assess my spine independently and bring about meaningful changes on my own responsibility.
I wish you much joy and success with this book and the accompanying videos.
