Description ▲
Traditionally, scoliosis is managed through observation, bracing and surgery. Scolio-Plates aims to add exercise to that list. Three components are emphasized in Scolio-Pilates to aid in mobilizing curves, reducing pain and improving lung and heart health: 1. Elongation of the spine, 2. Breathing exercises, 3. Strength and endurance. These methods of correcting scoliosis are not new, putting them all together as a user-friendly method in the Pilates setting is. Traction dates back tot eh Ancient Greeks, breathing exercises to 200 A.D. and strengthening to the early 20th century. Now with Scolio-Pilates, we combine the best of what science hs given us to give you easy-to-follow spinal alignment correction keys and the exercises that go with them.
