Scoliosis? You should try Yoga! It'll heal in no time.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 weeks ago

I stopped meeting with a doctor who told me to do yoga instead of referring me to physical therapy.

Hard truth though is you need that kind of motion to keep your back in check regardless, not necessarily yoga. I spent over a year in physical therapy after being bedridden for a good 10 months simply because my spine started its own minor scoliosis. Instead that doctor took their frustration with my case out on me because I insisted on having pain while not meeting their possible diagnosis'

But yeah aint gonna do much for actual scoliosis, im just beyond thankful I returned to being functional instead of in massive constant pain
