The Scoliosis Mind/Body Connection

March 30, 2015

It’s important to understand the mind/body connection with scoliosis. Rather than simply focusing on the curves in your spine and ways to unwind those curves, you have to visualize how those curves affect the rest of the body – your hips, your arms, your shoulders, the way you move, and more. Even if you’ve had spinal fusion surgery or you’re currently wearing a back brace, you still have scoliosis, which makes the mind/body connection even more critical. The ultimate, overall goal is to bring the spine back to a more neutral alignment

Watch the video above as I use visual aids to demonstrate ways to decompress and lengthen your spine.

– Erin Myers

This chapter is going to do me IN scoli friends ar This chapter is going to do me IN scoli friends around the world. Seriously, I’m just saying. Every single day for over a month I’ve been working with the formatter for my new scoli book I Have Scoliosis; Now What? Professional editing and formatting is not for the faint of heart. I’ve spend a solid two hours today amicably arguing if chickpea could go under the bean bullet point under bone health and if we should put a secondary bullet point under fish specifying that oily/fatty fish are a better melatonin source because they are high in tryptophan. I just keep telling myself that I’M SO CLOSE!!!!!😩😳🤪🤨🧐We’re still on for a June publication date. 🤞 Oh, and for the record, your mind will be blown away with this chapter. I just reread it for the first time in a few months. 🤩 📕 #scoliosis #ihavescoliosisnowwhat #spiralspine #bentbutnotbroken #scoliosisawareness #scoliosiswarrior
BOSU ball + Reformer + shoulder stability + rotati BOSU ball + Reformer + shoulder stability + rotation = HARD!!!!!! 🤩 1 yellow spring. This is REALLY challenging (but I’m always up for a challenge 😉). If you have imbalances they’ll come out in flying colors here! Make sure to do both sides and don’t be shocked if Rt/Lt are very different. #pilates #pilatesreformer #bosuball #scoliosis #scoliosisexercise #spiralspine #nashvillepilates
