It is recommended that you do these exercises at least once per day for several months. It is important that you TAKE BEFORE AND AFTER PHOTOS once a month to track your progress. These changes do not happen over night. Generally, the longer you have had scoliosis, the longer it will take for the spine to "recover". Rule of thumb; for the number of years you have had scoliosis, it will take roughly that many months to see a noticeable change in your spinal alignment.

Other factors to consider is if your scoliosis is caused by a structural deformity, or if it is functional. Structural meaning an x-ray confirmed that there are actual structural differences within your spinal segments that has created that curve. Otherwise, functional scoliosis is called "functional" because the spine will straightens out with forward or backward bending movements. Either way, stretching and strengthening is a must to help reduce secondary complications that scoliosis sometimes creates.

It is also recommended that you book an appointment with your local manual osteopath to help address any other body structure involvement (such as organ tension) that are specific to your condition.
