Scoliosis Physical Therapy

Stephanie Said:

hello i have scoliosis and i have tried the physical therapy and the back brace but neither of them have?

We Answered:

I have scoliosis as well and you need to go to a back specialist and they can tell right away by doing a MRI. I had it BAD, a 45degree curse so i had to have surgery. Where do you live? I could give you the name of my doctor if you live in the Houston area, Good Luck Patrick........if you need to ask me any questions you can email me!

Edith Said:

Has anyone out there ever done physical therapy while pregnant?

We Answered:

I didn't have physical therapy per say, but I got into a car accident at the end of my first trimester and had to go to the chiropractor for back injuries. I went all the way up until around my 8th month. He adjusted the treatment to my condition, and everything went well. Discuss the pregnancy and the treatment with the doctor before hand to make sure you are comfortable with the procedures being done to you. Good luck!

We Answered:

hi there-- i ma sorry to hear this. I DEF recommend doing a series of stretched first thing in the morning, at least once during the day, and at night before you go to bed. I have a similar situation and I can tell you that its IMPERATIVE to take care of it because it can get worse (its chronic). I recommend doing a yoga series; the sun salutations are great (google it). Be careful not to do any jerking motions while stretching....be fluid and careful! Hope this helps!
