Here are the different curvature’s of Scoliosis.
Idiopathic Scoliosis is non-preventable as it is determined by structural genetics, but functional scoliosis which is caused by muscle imbalances and poor posture can be prevented.
It is very important for those with idiopathic scoliosis, especially around the ages of 9-18 years, to monitor their curve progression and to take it upon themselves to participate in rehabilitative care to manage it, as they are still growing and the chances for it worsening is highest at this age. This is also more likely to affect women, rather than men.
Massage can help to alleviate pain, improve the condition by increasing range of motion, improve sleep and make their day-to-day.
Massage can sometimes reverse postural habits and prevent permanent damage to the spine or surrounding muscles and tissue.
