I am looking forward to watching the full series!
Hope it helps!
Nice 🎉 this is important for scoliosis thank u
You are welcome
Yay!! I need this!!
Feel free to give me feedback on what you want to see.
Thank you for sharing! This demonstration is very clear ^^
I want to ask a question, is it better to practice elongation in any specific position? Like standing or sitting or both ? Thank you!
I would start in sitting and then as you get better at it you can try in different positions. Sometimes it is helpful to start lying on your back even if it is a challenge to do it in sitting.
Please is there a personal assistance to help with a left thoracic scoliosis developed September 2023. Getting worried and very disturbed as I don’t know how it happened. Have been on physio therapy but don’t know if it’s helping
With a left thoracic curve, I definitely would recommend working with a Schroth therapist or at least someone who has seen a lot of scoliosis. There are many factors, but I would seek out someone who has experience with this. Thanks for the question.
