Many adults have never had a meaningful conversation about their scoliosis. They don't understand what it is and what they can do for self-care, so they are often fearful and worried. Basic education and simple tips can make a big difference! Common Questions to be Discussed: What is scoliosis, and why do I have it? Why is my back shaped this way? What are the current concepts of exercise and care for scoliosis? Is it safe to exercise? If so, how do I do so without making things worse? How should I sit and what are good sleep positions? What are reasonable goals for an adult with scoliosis? ( stabilizing the curve/curves, managing pain, improving daily habits to minimize stress on spine - just a few examples ) Purpose: This workshop is for adults who would like to know more about their scoliosis
I'll keep the class size small so we can have Q and A and discussions as we go! Workshop with Dina Chalom PT MOMT, CIYT Full Bio
