How To Beat Scoliosis Naturally In 4 Minutes A Day - WITHOUT Chiropractor Or Bone Cracking

- Scoliosis is often a permanent condition that causes lower back pain, mid back pain and neck pain... but also knee pain or hip pain, as your weight is unbalanced!
However, there's a lot that you can do to fix scoliosis or at least relieve the pain.
The strategy is a 2-fold one, which won't take you more than 4 minutes a day:
- use stretching exercises or muscle relaxation exercises to manage the consequences of the structural scoliosis, i.e. the spinal deviation that you are born with
- fix your postural habits (crossing the legs, locking one knee, leaning on the elbow, etc.) to avoid feeding the scoliosis (i.e. eliminate the functional spine deviation).
These self-treatment and posture correction exercises will take only a few minutes per day, and you will feel better without chiropractor or bone cracking! Avoiding all this joint manipulations will also help preserve your long-term health and avoid joint hyper-mobility.

Thank you for the guidance. I had been in pain for a long while and after just one session 2-4 mins the pain in my lower spine released. 🙏
Well done!! Keep practicing every day :)
Thank you for this helpful video.
I love your comment at the end where you say that there's no reason to whine about what nature has given...we all have gifts and challenges. You're great! Thank you! 😊
I was born perfect. At 12 I jumped from a tree and broke my foot. There was a damage to my colon that no one noticed. I walked with a cast for 6 months, using my arms and one leg a lot. At 14 they noticed that my left muscles were weaker than on the right side. The stronger side pulled the colon. No one ever gave me back strengthening exercises. I will try this. Hopefully I will have the discipline to remember it everyday.
And let me know how it goes!!
It work?
Did it help?
Excellent, thank you, posture is so important to correct scoliosis
This is very helpful. Thank you! I have a c-curve in my mid to upper back. As i age, I keep getting tighter and in more pain. I've naturally found which stretches feel the best. This made me feel less alone and I feel more encouraged to encorporate this into my daily routine, which i don't do and really need to.
Absolutely excellent! Thank you so much! ❤😇❤
Hi, I just found your channel. Thank you for your technique. I will try this out 👍
thanks for sharing i also have mild scoliosis i will tdy this GOD BLESS
This is super helpful
That's a great quote. "What you have been doing is not natural, it's just usual"
Thank you, Olivier. I was not able to understand for which type of scoliosis was your exercise as you said "C-shape" scoliosis. My scoliosis, however, is Reverse-S, where my lower curve (to the left) -- lumbar -- is 37 degree, and my upper thoracic curve (to the right) is 38 degree. Two curves. Kindly, spend a video, please, for precisely the Reverse-S (two curves) scoliosis. I appreciate you a lot.
It is something new! Thank you so much! I’ll try it with a great please!
Thank you very much!
Absolutely brilliant, Oliver. We should work together one day! You're a great coach and have a lot of knowledge. I'm sure we can learn a lot of each other
I noticed the back of my right thigh muscles were stiff as a board (rock hard when extended) when I sat on the floor and extended both legs out and it made me think that it might have been what had pulled my hips out of level and caused my spine to curve. My left leg was always much better and limber. My spine was curved, and my hips were tilted in the STANDING X-rays. So, I told my doctor that after stretching my right leg muscle my level 10 pain went to zero instantly. He said to me, if that is helping, keep doing it. It took many months and even years but on my own I fully recovered with the simple stretching of my right leg muscles. Now in the mirror my ribs are level, my hips are level and I have zero pain. Something in my design or a past injury keeps tightening my right thigh compared to my left thigh. This requires me to continue to stretch my right thigh muscles every few months. Which I don't mind because it's something I like to do anyway. When I go walking, I will put my right leg up on a table like runners do and I will hold and gently, carefully, thoughtfully, tenderly stretch my right leg focusing on the back thigh muscles. This keeps me in shape with zero pain.
if my right hip is higher than my left, what leg should i focus on ?
@@ceciliastucker If your condition is the same as mine then your left leg could use some simple and gentile stretching or loosening. Tension pulling down on your left hip could pull your left side lower than your right side. Be careful, consult a professional because your condition and mine may or may not be the same. Nevertheless, if you can do simple leg stretches then give it a try.
I'm the same way. I have very flat feet and that could be part of your problem as well. Foot problems can effect our whole body mechanics. There's a video that shows how.
Thank you so much,
Where can I find more information.
This was really helpful
Hi Daniel, and sorry for a super late reply! More info on scoliosis would only be available from a personal consultation: how and what depends on the scoliosis that you have. Have you ever consulted for the issue?
thank you so much
thank you brother. you are very good
thank you mate :) I hope this helps!!
thank you
Great video! I would like to ask, in case of lateral shift that happened due to disc herniation, so that one side of the pelvis goes left and shoulders are not even, what can I do?
I'm not sure if I understand rightly the question, Sophie... but in my opinion: if the lateral shift is due to disc herniation, it is due to the one-sided muscle contraction that was caused by the herniation. In this case, I would start by very gently relaxing the spine, as I explain here: th-cam.com/video/uzBW45IGaI4/w-d-xo.html. Let me know in a few weeks if this helps!!
Im having difficulty to find out the type of curve im having. Can you please help 🙏
Like what he is saying Thanks!
I have Thoracic Spine thoracic scoliosis
My X-ray report says"Scoliosis concave to the right with loss of lumbar sacral spine lordosis suggestive of muscle spasm. I hv a terrible pain in my left leg Can this be corrected and what type of exercises should I do
Great information! I have child Scoliosis . Now that im 65 yrs , i do less movement ,since i retried now im in pain . My 86yr old mother has it real bad shes always in pain, is this Scoliosis from my mother ? Thank you for your service
My problem is I have levoscoliosis the turn starts mid back and turns a bit left in the lumbar and turns back at the very bottom. So I don't know if the concave is in the lower right where it should be or is it in the mid left.. under the the rib cage in the mid left where I collapse when I sit that also seems to be concave . So I'm unclear where to-do these exercises. My levo wasn't discovered until I was 54 I'm 56 and stand 12 hrs at a job. It's been a nitemare sir honestly idk if I'm natural or even usual anymore because idk know where the concaves are and how to properly exercise. I love to exercise but it's taken a turn for the worst since i found out I had this.
Does this work of s scoliosis curvature?
Please don't write misleading titles. Scoliosis ain't something you fix. It's something you live with.
I was born without hip sockets so when I was 16 I was fixed and perfect until I was getting a new hip replacement and I developed scoliosis? I am now a hunchback in a few years help!😢
Thank you for the exercises! I am still trying to understand which side it is for me. After completing these exercises, I feel more pressure and tension on the right side of my spine. What does it mean exactly? Do I have a reversed S shape of the scoliosis?
Hey dear. There's an easy way to "draw" your scoliosis: remove your shirt and bra, bend forward and ask someone to glide down your spine, applying firm pressure on your skin with 2 fingers (one on the left of the vertebrae, one on the right). Your skin will turn red and show the shape of your back :)
Excellent, instuctive. Iĺl try out and report. Paul, 68
are the reopening exercises meant to exacerbate the curve to stretch it, instead of going against the curvature??
No, not really: the idea is to really open the curvature indeed.
Very good an instructive. God bless you. Iĺl try and report. Paul, 68
Let me know, Paul!!
What do you think about Botox in the tight muscle? BTW your stretch are amazing
I would love to hear the answer..though of it too...
So, if I can get some clarification. If, for example there is an S curve in the spine, with a lumbar curve to the left (with left high hip) and a thoratic curve to the upper right - I work more on the curve side or the concave side? This always confuses me. Thanks for any further info you can provide. Love this video - just want to make sure I'm doing things correctly.
Did he responded? I had same question
No, he hasn't answered which is disappointing but then again I have no idea what his schedule is like or if he's seen my comment and I do appreciate that he took the time to post this. I do have the answer though, for the upper thoratic curve to the right you should be working to strengthen that side by stretching to towards the curve even though that sounds counter-intuitive and exactly what he's doing with both the upper and lower exercises. I forgot about this video so thanks for your question. One exercise that I do is stand in front of a wall, put the right hand on the wall with a straight arm, with the left hand gently hold to the side of your head (above the ear) and gently push it to the right so that you feel the muscle under your right arm. This will strength the upper part of you side chest which is weak and help with that curve hopefully. I saw this on a TH-cam video by a doctor that specializes in scoliosis. Best of luck!@@yurasikpokl7633
I like these exercises, but I'm prematurely scared of stretches because I have read that the muscles re-tighten in response to overstretching. Can this be mitigated if stretches are done properly? I really want to know more so I can help my girlfriend. My spine is a little crooked too at the lumbar region but I have no pains and I think it looks cool.
Í have lower scoliosis so,🎉 this helps a lot,, but my question is being in med 30 can I still fix my posture or surgically fixes it??
it depends, mate... the idea isn't necessarily to fix the scoliosis but to live with it without sacrificing your quality of life. Surgery is for the very severe cases only...
@@OlivierGirard ok thanks
if my right hip is higher than my left, what leg should i focus on ???
If your right hip is higher, you can consider stretching the ilioposas (th-cam.com/video/vrdEp8UDPHc/w-d-xo.html), quadratus lumborum (th-cam.com/video/DW6RGvB7gaE/w-d-xo.html) and lower back muscles on the right side.
Prosím české titulky....
I'm a bit confused. You talk of "opening to the (L) or (R)", but if the curve of the scoliosis is to the right, like mine is - it is in the lumbar "thoracolumbar", like this " ) ", do you "open" the left or right? Isn't the left already open? My hips and especially my lower back at around T10 really hurts on the right, but I am seeing you would stretch the left in this case - or "open" the left by stretching it.... is this correct? Like I said, I'm confused. Thanks.
It is extremely confusing. I wish he had provided some sketches and spoken more slowly. I don't want to stretch to the wrong side, so I will not try any of this.
I think if you think about your curve as a bow (as in bow + arrow), the tighter the string is, the more curved a bow is. If you were to have a looser/longer string on the bow, it would be more straight. I think it's the same concept with the spine, at least that's how I understood it.
That’s a good comparison, Nadim
I have convex side on the left and at the same time the muscles on the left side are a lot stronger and shorter and my left hip is also higher. On my concave right side the muscles are weak and the hip is lower
Can you please give me any suggestions?
Sounds like you have a c curve. Concave is my right side, spine curved to the left. Maybe we can compare notes!
@bjacob9998 yes, good idea, i am up for it
Hello, I'm 17 years old and I have 35 degrees of cobb scoliosis, could you tell me if it's possible for me to decrease at least 20 degrees? How long could it take? I would really like to have an aesthetic body: I already have height (1.90) but it is absolutely useless if I have scoliosis.
I couldn't understand practically anything you said, because I'm from Brazil and almost nobody here really knows English.
Use a corset. If you don't have a back brace wearing a corset will help to keep a good posture and will shift your spine. I know someone that did this as a teenager it worked. Wear it day and night.
@@josiecamilo7098I already used a brace during the stretch (bone growth)
My scoliosis have my chest hurting, what to do?
Have my whole back hurts some days like it depends on how much I do in a day.
can you treated scoliosis with 40 degrees
That’s quite a lot… have you seen a doctor already?
Its it possible to fix scoliosis?🙌😃
it depends on whether it's structural or functional... the difference is explained here: th-cam.com/video/mv3n7_kCjUU/w-d-xo.html
It is not unless you are a growing child with assistance such as a brace or surgery rods to help guide the spine. Even in such an event the area with the curve does not straighten much. The brace/rods just prevents futher curving. I am someone who has scoliosis and wore a brace.
I'm almost certain that there is a way which we have not tried yet to "fix" scoliosis. I mean, the body and bones are malleable albeit they take forever. My sister has scoliosis and so do I; she wore a brace but we were all so freaked out about getting her straight that literally no one bothered to check me. I found out when I was 19 and I'm probably not still growing. But I'm also a persistent mf so I think that the science, technology, and anatomical awareness will get to a point which we are able to use effective breathing, exercise, and stretching techniques to longitudinally improve posture and spinal curvature. Feel free to argue but that's my objective opinion with a little bit of subjectivity thrown in there for fun.
I am only 40
I would love this to be true ! Unfortunately it is hard to believe, maybe for teens or something,.. I'm an adult 60,.. theese things are not working for me,... only surgery of God.
Goodluck anyways,
There's truth in your words... it's what I mean in the video with structural vs functional: the older you get, the more structural the issues tend to be. However, there's a rule that has never been proven wrong: whatever be your age, health, job, etc., you'll always feel better if you use your body well than if you use it wrongly. Sometimes, we can't fix the issues; that's when we need to focus on managing them as good as we can...
Just another clickbait, its not possible to fix scoliosis as adult
Beating and fixing are different things:
- fixing is about straightening the curve. I explain that this works only for the functional part, provided that enough efforts are provided
- beating is about being able to function properly despite the issue. It does not necessarily imply that the issue is fixed...
You cant "beat" scoliosis. Yes exercise may help by strengthening the muscles surrounding your spine but you will always have the curve. Giving people false hope will not help ease their pain
There's been cases where spine corrected
@@KingsDaughter. if the spine is severe enough that surgery or a brace is needed whatever area that is curved is not going to be corrected. You can keep repeating the same lie and I will keep speaking the truth. Now if you want to prove me wrong by all means please do. Where can I find these cases? What information did you research to come to this conclusion because I have been to many Drs and all have said the same thing Im telling you. I wore a body brace and I still have scoliosis so you cant tell me my own experience.
@@befree4052 you can’t cure scoliosis but you can reduce the curve significantly, there’s someone who designs braces specifically to reduce the curve, reduce pain, improve posture etc. it’s called scolibrace, it can be used for adolescents or adults, you can check out his channel for more information which is named “scoliosis reduction
center”
@@WillGil I have scoliosis Im aware of this. I had to wear a brace as a child. The brace stops the curve from continuing which is what I already stated. That wasnt the argument. "Fixing" and "Beating" scoliosis is what I have an issue with. People spreading lies to get youtube views.
@@befree4052 you’re most likely talking about the boston brace which just tries to keep the curve from progressing but the brace i’m talking about is the scolibrace which is to help reduce the curve not only to just try to prevent it from progressing, you can see results in just 1 week with the scolibrace, here’s a video as an example th-cam.com/video/TlPXt5g50vA/w-d-xo.html
