Disclaimer: Following this video for your scoliosis might not help you!
You have to consider many factors before trying to correct a scoliosis. For example, how old are you, what degrees do you have (this method works best under 40 degrees), what is happening in the rest of your body that could be making your scoliosis worse? - วิทยาศาสตร์และเทคโนโลยี

I am very impress that you still reply our comments after 5 years
He didnt reply hahaha
No problem, my pleasure. The more people I can help without actually treating them the better! Ed Paget
Thanks for replying even though this video is fairly old. Appreciate you! Peace
Im in the process of exploring spine surgery. I have developed a rib hump. I've had scoliosis since I was 13. I was braced until I was 17.
I've been exercising since I was 13. As time goes by I have developed some restrictions and pain.
I've come back many times over the years to these videos of yours Ed, these really help!!
Thank you for answering my question. You are a star!!!
Thank you for this very specific video! Really helpful!
Thank you for making a video for this kind of scoliosis! Most stretches are shown only for people who have the opposite (most common) type of curve, and it is difficult to understand.
Priceless information, great video, well done & thanks for sharing :)
Ooooo Edward you nailed it with this one! I'm going to embed this on my page right now - underneath your last one... JUST FABULOUS!!
Thank you for this video, I saw the other curve and I was trying to figure it out how to do the inverse movement!!!
You are marvelous for sharing all this knowledge!! Thank you 🙏
Thank you so much for making this video, 🙌🏼
Thank you. I am going to school to become a trainer and I recently did a posture test on some clients and myself and needed to learn some exercises for them. You helped a lot and I feel more knowledgeable!!
Ed Paget, thank you very much for this video.
I'm so glad I found your channel
Very interesting exercises that I need to adopt and follow up with. Thanks mr coach
Thank you for your prompt response!!! I am new in this whole new world of scoliosis, and I think I understand now. Based on the picture, I thought that the concave side of the spine was the result of of weak muscles not being able to pull the spine to the right, and the convex side of the spine was the result of stronger muscles pulling the spine to the left (in thoracic scoliosis)
Thank you again. I will get your e-course. I already checked it, and I like your approach.
Thank you so much for this very helpful video.
thank you for demo on both sides.
thank you! all start these exercises today
Excellent Thanks for making
Thank u so much for ur video.. I'ved learned so much.
i found this very helpful and informative
Thanks for sharing your knowledge , that is a game changer.
Thank you for making videos on both sides.
3 days. And all my pain has gone away. This guys is a gift from God... Way better than all the quack chiropractors I've seen this whole year. Sorry for those that are actually good.. I couldn't find you. They never really took the time to assess my condition and did the same old adjustments every time.....I felt the lower spine split back in place little by little each day. I did this along with rubber balls and foam rollers to roll on the spine after each exercise and stretch...All it took was my slipper on one foot and a forward or backward step.....Who knew...🤔 Again, thank you so much... I had so much pain just standing for 30mins. If you accept donations or something I would glad give it.
Very well explained. I hope this helps my son.
This is exactly my case thanks I will work on this and see how it goes!!
Did your scoliosis improved.
thanks for quick response! I have the exact same shape of scoliosis with this video, but I actually feel my muscle being more tightened on my upper left and lower right of my back, which you suggested to be further strengthened, that's why it was not very intuitive to me.
this is brilliant! thank you :)
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Hi! I have a lumbar scoliosis, not very serious, but not very mild.
A doctor said I should wear a 5mm heel lift when I was 16. I did it and after 4 months new xrays showed it was working to stop the worsening of the curvature. i was told to wear it untiIl turned 19. I kept wearing it till I was 38. I stopped then and I was fine. I kept doing yoga and gentle running plus core exercises (stuff that I started to do regularly when I was 36). After 8-9 months without the heel lift I started to have back problems, pain in the left lower back and hip (where I used to have the heel lift) a physiotherapist and also an osteopath said to wear a thicker heel lift under the left foot (as I was doing before). The pain went away for a month. Then it came back on the right side, very bad but more in the leg than in the back. A proper bad sciatica inflammation. My legs have the same length but still, those two therapists said I should wear a one cm heel lift. New I took it off and let's see if I go back having pain in the left side. WHat a terrible life. Any ideas? Wearing a heel lift made me develop a very bad sciatica on the opposite side (heel lift in the left shoe = pain gone in the left part of the lower back and hip and pain in the right leg!).
These are very similar exercises I do for figure skating training. Glad to know skating actually helps me. I'll just do double the workouts for the one side that's curved
Thank you, Ed, you helped me a lot!
Ethan Carter great news, can you tell me how it helped in more detail?
Got it . Thank you very much :) I will try it out :)
I have been doing this on my own, because it feels good. I use a 10-lb. dumb bell to stretch. I am fascinated, discovering that what I do on my own is the recommended therapy. My PET scan of 4 years ago revealed a left thoracic C-shaped scoliosis as well as a left lumbar C-shaped scoliosis. This exercise is helpful. I have had pain in my right hip for years and only recently discovered the weight/stretch treatment.
any update??
Ok, Thank you very much. Appreciate it.
what a great video .
Thank you so much for the video. I'm looking forward to the exercises :) I do have a question though: although my S curve is like what you drew on the board, my left ribs slightly goes forward comparing with the right one and my left hips slightly goes backward comparing with the right one (I'm talking about the bones). Do I do the exercise you showed??? because I have a feeling that my spine twists in another way. Thank you so much
thank you so much
Thank you.
Thank you.
Thanks so much for the information.The explanation of the logic of why to do a particular exercise is very beneficial.Could you please list out the reasons why a person ends up in this posture(S-shape)?
Thank you so much for posting! I immediately felt better after doing these exercises!
That’s great news!
@@EdPaget Thank you for your reply! Was not sure if you still reply to comments but I have a question if that's okay. Do you know if it is still possible to skateboard with scoliosis? My curve is similar to the one in this video. When I skateboard I keep my right foot on the board and I push with my left foot. I do also have a pelvic tilt which makes my left leg (the one I push with) slightly longer. Is it still safe to skateboard? Thank you! I have watched many of your videos and they have helped me incredibly.
I use this approach with great success with my clients Ed. Great explanation and very informative
John Dent that’s good news John. I’m actually going to be working with the Gray Institute to put together a formal training for professionals. I’ll let you know when it’s ready to go.
Hi Guys, I’m sorry to to interrupt your conversation here. But I’m very keen about the formal training for professionals Ed. Could you please let me know too. Thanks a lot. Best M.
Thank you for the video. It helps me so much! Is it possible if you make the video with full body? So I can see the hips movement clearly, if i do it wrong. Thank you so much once again! 😊
This actually worked!!! Thank you!!!
I did the upper and lower back stretches each morning for about a month and took before and after photos... My lower back had kind of a "c" shape and my upper back was causing my right shoulder to lean down compared to my left by about 20 degrees. Now, taking a photo from behind, my spine looks fine and I don't see any shoulder angle either!
For the past week I've been doing the lower back with one of those large elastic bands you can get at a sports store and just tied it to my bed's leg and I used two books of different size like you showed.
The only weird thing is I feel is the left side of my rib cage and the left side of my hip bone are pinching together slightly while the gap between my right rib cage and right end of my hip feels kind of wider, but it doesn't hurt or anything, just feels like the left side of my waist is squishing a bit but looks perfectly aligned in the mirror.
Wonups iknow this post is from 3 years ago but to solve that i would say do some hip core back strenghting exercises
This is the right video I need ...Thanks ❤❤
Great great video! i believe everyone of us who watched this video is on the same boat and have the feeling of hope for non-surgical treatment. But i just have a quick question, could you explain the intuition of strengthening the muscle of the concavity side (the left in this case, correct me if i am wrong), but not the the other side. The reason I ask is because my chiropractor used to use electric treatment on my convex side to stimulate and strengthen the muscle instead. Thank you!
Thank you very much for this, could have been written specifically for me. Over time right shoulder had continued to drop. XRays have confirmed. To date, I've received 1) dont worry about it from MD, i.e. surgery too complex 2) in / out adjustments from Chiros and 3) uncertainty from some good PT's I've visited. This gives me a chance to take some control.
This is simple and makes sense to me!
Thank you!
The two videos discuss scoliosis with a S shape curvature, mine is a C shape, so I really don't know if this could work for me, but the videos are really practical and useful, thankyou so much for putting so much thought and effort to it.
Mine is minimal and I've been working on it for a while. Some days hurt, others are fine. During the stretch there was a click and it's no longer visible. Time will tell if it's permanent but I am extremely grateful to you.
Thank you.
How’s your back?
Thank you for this brilliant video. I'd just like to check with you to make sure I don't do the wrong exercises.
My foot pronates more on left vs right rotating that leg inwards inwards.
Left hip is lower than right hip, rotating clockwise and forwards.
I have a small degree of scoliosis in my lumbar region with a C curve towards the left (convex side on the right)
Doing a forward slump, my left side is higher than my right side when looking at my back from behind - I'm not sure what sort of rotation this is.
Spine above the lumbar curve is straight.
Should I follow the exercises in this video for the lower back?
Cheers!
Thank you sir , i just want to know what you are meaning in the end of the video , is that mean i must working on strengthening the upper curve then after a while when i feel ready doing strengthening for lower curve
Thanks for quick response! I have the exact same shape of scoliosis with this video. But the muscles on my upper left and the lower right part of my back are actually more tightened, which are the parts that you suggested to be strengthened, that's why I found this not very intuitive at first.
Thanks Ed. Saw your original video a few years ago and just discovered this version which is where my curve is. I might be over 40 degrees but will give it a try.
Thanks Art. I’m glad you decided to do the program and get more indepth with managing your Scoliosis.
@@EdPaget Yes, enjoying the education I'm getting and the exercises. I highly recommend!
Thanks for you video Edward. Is over one and half month that I am practicing this daily, and is working for me. I recently re-watched the video and I noticed that when you show the exercise of pushing forward the left arm, the rubber band is is fixed to a point much lower than the left shoulder (so that it makes a diagonal line with the extended arm). Is this done by intention? In my routine I can fix the rubber band in a straight line with the shoulder and, I can understand that the mechanics of the exercise can change because of how the resistance is applied. Is this a relevant effect for a good result?
Lastly, how long do you suggest to keep doing this routine for keeping the achieved results fairly permanently?
Thanks again.
Thank you for the educational videos. I have a lumbosacral dextroscoliosis most likely due to a disc protrusion at L4-5 and L5S1, i have already done quadruped rocking to straighten out my spine and eliminated most of the pain, but my sacrum seems to be rotated/tilted, right side being slightly higher than left ilium. Even when i'm standing i can feel gravity is not pulling my body weight equally. Does the lower lumbar exercise help with correcting a tilted pelvis with slight lumbar scoliosis?
awesome!
What is the resistance band you’re using in the video and where can I buy it? Thanks so much for this recording. The method looks sound and thorough
Thabk you so much
i have mild thoracic dextroscolliosis. and i just started doing this excercise. i went to the doctor for my lower back pain (not really painful) that i got for playing basketball and probably in the gym. i'll be doing this exercise and get r ray after a month. hope it works :)
Thank you..:D
Thanks for the prompt response it is much appreciated! There was something I did forget to ask or rather thought of after asking my previous question. Has anybody that you know of who uses this exercise seen any results from doing so?
The video is great, the routine seems just like what I needed. I have only one question. It feels like my back is rotated the opposite of what you say, although it's definitely bent the same way as the video. Can this be possible or it's just some wrong impression that I have? In this case, should I reverse the twisting exercises? Thank you for sharing!
After about five years of searching for a cure for this exact type of scoliosis I finally come upon this video. I'm seeing short term results after only two days of trying these stretches. I know that if I keep doing these then my spine will eventually be near its pre-scoliosis state. How many months do you think I need to stay at these exercises before I make progress toward a straighter spine?
.
I'm a 22 year old white male, 5'11" and 165 lbs.
Quick Question!! Are these 2 videos which describe the lengthen/stregthen and rotation talking about structural scoliois only or functional as well? I have C curve functional scoliosis with convex side on my right and trying to use both of these videos to help me! In a previous video of yours you say that the rotation is different... please help!
I have LLD, my left leg is 20 mm longer then my right leg, due to which I had scoliosis on my lower lumbar L4-L5 & S1 region. The convex side is on right if look from behind as in your diagram. which part or exercise should I do to correct that. I don't have scoliosis on my upper back but I am also suffering from few other problems like and my pelvic is also moved little forward on left side and have little winged scapula on my left shoulder, is there any other exercises also that I can perform in combination with the mentioned one in the video to correct my condition. I will really appreciate if you can provide any suggestion to correct my problem.
Thanks for your reply. Yes I've had scoliosis for about 10 years now and I'm pretty sure the shape of mine is exactly like the one in the video. I got a bit confused because I use a foot sole in the left shoe to increase the height of the shorter leg, and in the exercise the length is used for the right foot instead.
Great video. Thank you. How many times do we have to do this per day?
Hi ed, Thank you for your super educational videos. My neighbor has scoliosis, and has received already 2 surgeries for it. She told me something and I would love your input. She said that she never had a leg length difference" until her last surgery. Meaning, she clearly remembers, feeling big drop on her left foot (i think) when she tried to walk after surgery. . She never felt that before surgery. She wears a jelly heel lift. What are your thoughts re this difference in length from one day to the next? Muscle would take a longer time to "develop" no? Thanks so much!
Hey, thanks a lot for your reply! Neither of my feet turn out, and it's difficult for me to pinpoint the source of my back strain/pain. In the past, when I've been to doctors, they have had difficulty diagnosing the issue as well. I injured my back badly last week but luckily I'm feeling better now! I'll probably try a doctor again in the near future, and plan to do some of the strengthening exercises you demonstrate here. =)
hey Ed, nice show, apreciate a lot, many 10xs to you, you seem like a very very nice guy, hope you dont mind if i borrow you method and make same movie in my country, unfortunately i see a lot of kids with scoliosis, and a lot of them dont speak english, and they pay a lot of money to go to private clinics, but with no visible results,. this is a very easy method, costless, and you can practically do it everywhere you are. keep up the good job!
Hello.Thanks for this very helpful resource. It's nice to know I have options! I had mild scoliosis as a child, I did exercises regularly and my doctor said it "went away." As an adult, I believe I probably still have some curvature. Whenever my back suffers injury, I experience a lot of lower back pain and tend to stand with my right hip extended. I assume that means I should be watching this, and not the other, video?
Excellent
thank you , and what about a scoliosis on the cervical spine ? how to correct it through exercise please ?
when my back is straight, what can i do to keep it there?
I found your video very clear, my only question is the lengthening (or stretching) of the lower (lumbar) concave curve, when is it supposed to take place? Whilst working on the upper back or lower back (i.e when stepping the right foot on the step)
Thank you for the response...yes my right leg is shorter than my left which makes my right hip lower, such is the case in the video, so I will continue to wear the lift (which is just a gel heal insert I bought at Walmart). The video states how to 'change' the scoliosis. I understand there are a wide variety of degrees of curvatures, but mine is pretty small. With a smaller degree, is there a very general timeframe in which a person doing these exercises could see any type of change? Thanks!
I would like to thank you for this video!
My question is how can I back squat when my left shoulder is higher than my right (I can't balance the bar on my back) and the bar tilts when I perform Overhead Press. I have not experience any pain except that my form is off (it just happened that way). Any way I can work around this?
Thanks!
Hi Ed,
Just two specific questions please:
1. Would doing the side bend with the arm down (with weight in it) work as well as raising arm (have shoulder impingement).
2. What is the ideal frequency for doing these exercises? Once per day? Multiple times per day? Different for stretching vs. strengthening exercises?
Thanks very much
Hello Edward :) Appreciate the videos you've made. But could you make a video of how to correct the deformity to the front ? I believe many ppl experience the bend towards spine as well.
What if your curvature occures in the area of the mid traps and the opposite curvature has it's rotation somewhere in the lower parts of the mid back region? (in other words the curvatures are higher up compared to what's shown in the drawing? can I still use what you show?) If I can use what you show is there anything to take in consideration or is it simply to apply and get going?
Hello-Thank you for the video. I have scoliosis identical to this video and picture. My right hip is lower than my left hip which causes this curve. I was told years ago to wear a lift in my right shoe to raise my right hip up. What I do is put a gel type of insole in my right shoe to help compensate for that. Do you recommend I keep wearing this or should I not continue wearing one and let the exercises start working. Please let me know as soon as you can. Thank you for your help.
Hello, thank you for making this video. I have not been x-rayed, but a recent Adam's Bend test has definitely revealed scoliosis. I have been self-diagnosed with a thoracic curve, concave to the right, but I don't have a lumbar curvature. I also don't know how severe my curve is, but my shoulders are fairly even and my rib cage is slightly wider on the left. So would doing the upper-back exercises be beneficial to my scoliosis, and also would they have a negative effect on my lower back? thanks
Hello ed. Please tell me mu upper back is all fine while the lower one is just like in this video so shall i do the complete exercise or follow the lumbar one only?
Hi I have this exact shape, My Chiro wants me to put a 1/4 inch heel in my right shoe, do you have any thoughts on that? I greatly appreciate your time
Thanks for this amazing videos, well I have a Torso/Lumbar scoliosis, not sure which way each, but Im sure that the upper one its 25 degrees and the lower one its like 18 degrees. If I do these exercises could the curvature degrees decrease a little bit? I also want to do weight lifting, at least 90 pounds, if I do these and also yoga and strengthen my back the safe and right way, could I lift that weight with or without a brace ? Thanks :)
Hello. My rib bump is on the right side of my back. Is this the suitable exercise for me to do or the one in the other video?
Thank you very much! Is it a correct exercise for an older person with moderate levoscoliosis midthoracic spine with multilevel degenerative changes? Seems it is a very comprehensive exercise, just a bit confusing leg movements. Which leg should hold your weight? Should legs be straight or can be bent them a little? Should you keep feet with heels flat on the floor all the time? Thanx again!
Thanks for this video .My Mri results as follows mild scolosis of lumbar spine noted convexity towards left. I have l confused which side i want to stretch (left /right) and
For derotating the lower back & strengthening excersise which leg keep stationary and which leg i move front and back . lumbar spine convexity towards left means which side muscle is strengthen & which side muscle is lengthen
hi there osteopathic guy was wondering what you would recommend for a rotated right leg/foot outwards right back slanted down left shoulder higher ? please reply thanks
I got an x-ray taken and my left shoulder looking from behind like your drawing a d it is higher like and inch or even 2 higher and im always pulling muscles on my left mid upper back the x-ray shows its is just like this video but when I twist to my left sitting g down I get a loud pop and the pressure goes away if i put my right arm over my head like you show and twist to the right it feels like it might pitch a nerve does this sound normal for this situation?
Hi, sorry if I missed it. How often can the stretching and exercises be done? Every 2-3 hours though out the day perhaps?
Hi Ed, is there a stretch for side bent right and rotated right? Thats what I have
Hi im side bent to the right AND rotated to the right. And my right pelvis is elevated and pushed forward. What would you suggest? cheers
Dear Ed
I weight train regularly and have this exact problem. I plan on doing the exercises suggested here, but are there any movements in the Gym that I should specifically avoid? Or will regularly doing the exercises in this video counteract any damaging movements?
if I have a c curve on the lumbar and upper back. in which foot i put on top of the books when I do the upper rotation . thank you
Hi, does is mean when it is side bent right (is the curve of the spine is to the right) and rotated left (is the tight muscle and higher side upper on the righ)t?
Do you sell this video on DVD format?
Which is convex and concave side. Could you clarify in relation to the diagram in video. Thanks. Would the area you marked in upper back for strengthening be referred to as convex left?
