Could your scoliosis be affecting more of your body than you’ve been told?
If you’ve ever been told that every ache and pain is because of your scoliosis or, on the other hand, that a particular pain has absolutely nothing to do with your scoliosis, you’re not alone. In this episode of Ruth’s Rant, I share my frustration with the “all or nothing” way scoliosis and pain are sometimes discussed.
Your spine doesn’t exist in isolation, and I explore why scoliosis may be connected to more than just the curve itself, including hypermobility, proprioception, mobility, strength, and stretching. I also explain that while there may not be a magic fix for scoliosis, there are still practical things you can do to help manage pain and improve how you move.
You’ll discover:
- Why scoliosis involves more than just the spine and how hypermobility and proprioception may play a role.
- Why improving mobility, strength, and proprioception can give you practical ways to manage scoliosis-related back pain.
- How to stop thinking in all or nothing terms and instead consider how your scoliosis may be contributing to your posture, back pain, & overall body movement.
Play the episode to discover practical ways you can work with your body instead of feeling powerless over your curve.
