What Options Do You Have To Straighten Your Scoliosis?

Scoliosis is a sideways curvature of the spine. To an extent, every human on earth has a degree of scoliosis.

However, when the curve becomes severe enough to notice, or it impacts your life, it is time to focus on correcting it. Scoliosis is a progressive condition. The earlier you can stop progression and begin improvement, the better.

The mainstream treatment options for those who suffer with a scoliosis are to either:

1. worsen at an unpredictable rate (cob angle)

2. or get scoliosis surgical treatment to either fuse the spine to itself or to a rod.

These options to treat scoliosis are archaic. The more we learn about the body, the more we learn about why the spine shifts like this in the first place. Moreover, we have learned how to bring it back into alignment naturally with our treatment plan.

Let’s have a look at some cases of scoliosis rehabilitation and then delve into how we operate

Case Study - 5 month scoliosis and cognitive transformation

Protocol Used For This Natural Scoliosis Reversal

• 100% Functional Patterns Techniques

• We take Gait & posture footage to identify the root causes of the scoliosis. (shifts, drops, abnormal rotations, poor connection between the hips and ribs, abnormal intra-abdominal pressure ect).

• Myo-Fascial Release - especially at the beginning to assist in rehydrating the fascia

• Biomechanics Training via Corrective Functional Patterns Chambers/IMAPS (the secret sauce). This balances out abnormalities seen in the gait footage

• Eventually dynamic exercises once the clients coordination and vestibular function had improved using the former mentioned techniques

• Dietary protocol for greater core tension and modulation of intra-abdominal pressure

• Lifestyle interventions for stress, sleep and wellbeing management

What Does Melissa Have To Say?

Case Study - 6 month natural scoliosis correction After Post-Surgery Relapse

Courtney had a 50 degree curve T6-T11 before having spinal fusion in 2002 via thoracotomy. This brought the curve to 7 degrees.

A second curve developed in 2018, a 40 degree curve from T5-L2. This curve is visible in the photo on the left. With a steel rod in the thoracic spine, there is a limitation to what we are able to do.

Nevertheless, her quality of life is improving along with the structure of her spine as it comes closer to neutral. The changes that she implemented to get these results were surgery-free. This majorly reduced the risk of another curve appearing in the future. This is why it is SO important to address the underlying cause and to avoid surgical bandaids.

Protocol Used For This Natural Scoliosis Reversal

• Because of relapse post-surgery we focused heavily on identifying the root cause of the scoliosis

• We analysed gait & postural to identify the root causes of the patients scoliosis. We wanted to know the biomechanical affect of surgical history. We looked for shifts, drops, abnormal rotations, poor connection between the hips and ribs, abnormal intra-abdominal pressure ect.

• Myo-Fascial Release - especially at the beginning to assist in rehydrating the fascia and improving range of motion

• We underwent Biomechanics Training using Corrective Functional Patterns Chambers/IMAPS (the FP secret sauce). This was to balance out the abnormalities seen in the gait footage

• Dynamic exercises to integrate biomechanical changes into fast paced activity

• Dietary protocol for greater core tension and modulation of intra-abdominal pressure

• Lifestyle interventions for stress, behaviour/language, sleep and wellbeing management

This client began training Functional Patterns once per week from the end of February 2023. He engages diligently in his homework practices. When he first started Functional Patterns he was reporting ongoing back pain when sitting at school.

He also felt pain when standing for periods and when engaging in physical activity. This limited his capacity to engage in schoolyard and team sports. In cases of pain, mild scoliosis treatment is crucial.

Since doing Functional Patterns for just under a year he is now reporting that he is pain free. He has a newfound confidence in his body and is enjoying getting into team sports and physical activity.

HERE IS WHAT HIS PARENTS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT HIS EXPERIENCE THUS FAR:

First - you will have a discussion on the phone with one of our professionals or client advocates.

During this call you will discuss a brief history of your condition, your goals and availability. From this information, we will match you with one of our Biomechanics Specialists. You can meet the entire team here. Each and every specialist in the clinic is trained in Human Biomechanics and has extensive experience working with and significantly improving scoliosis in our clients.

Your first session will be 90 minutes long.

What Happens After My First Session?

So you have completed your initial assessment and session, what now? Your Biomechanics Instructor will discuss their recommendations while taking into consideration your unique situation and their assessment findings.

Estimating the duration of improvement of scoliosis can be like predicting the length of string. The more time you are able to allocate to doing your Functional Patterns training, the faster you will make progress. Most protocols include 2-3 60 minute sessions per week alongside homework. You can also include some group classes to practice your fundamentals.

Following your initial consult, we will continue to build on the techniques you learned through:

• chambers,

• correctives

• and dynamic exercise.

Improvement in gait cycle is our number one metric to objectively measure your progress. We will usually take progress videos of running/sprinting/your specific activity during these following sessions.

We will work on breaking down the dysfunctions that lead to your scoliosis and pain while building new, functional patterns. This will result in a dramatic decrease in pain and an improvement in spinal alignment. We can also improve your movement, agility, strength, posture, aesthetic and overall quality of life.

Why We Use Gait Analysis For Scoliosis Assessment

Analysing gait is the best scoliosis assessment tool because it provides a comprehensive evaluation of a person's walking pattern. This includes the movement of their joints, muscles, and other body segments during walking.

Our biomechanics specialists will highlight the exact movement patterns that contribute to your scoliosis. For example, when your right foot hits the floor, one of your leg muscles may switch off. Your hips may shift to the right and your ribcage may shift left to compensate. This is a random example, but it illustrates the genius of analysing gait for scoliosis.

Analysing gate allows our practitioners to observe the various parts of your gait cycle/movement patterns. It allows us to identify any abnormalities or asymmetries that may affect your day-to-day life and any training you partake in. You will leave your assessment with concrete, objective measurements that will help you to gain a deep understanding of the true causes of your scoliosis.

Analysing Gait allows our practitioners to see how you orient yourself around your spine. We are able to see how your body interacts with gravity/the floor. This includes observing:

• the joint angles,

• muscle activity,

• ground reaction forces ect.

We can then develop targeted interventions to improve your gait. This reduces pain, injury risk, asymmetries, scoliosis, and improves poor posture.

What Is Scoliosis? And Is Scoliosis Genetic?

Scoliosis is a medical condition that involves a sideways curvature of the spine. Instead of the normal straight alignment, the spine develops a curve that can resemble an "S" or "C" shape. This curvature can affect the appearance of the back, and in severe cases it can cause:

• pain,

• discomfort,

• and even difficulty breathing.

Scoliosis can develop at any age, but it is most commonly diagnosed during adolescence, typically during a growth spurt. It affects both males and females, but females are more likely to develop scoliosis that requires medical intervention.

The several different types of scoliosis include:

1. Idiopathic scoliosis: This is the most common type of scoliosis, accounting for about 80% of cases. It typically develops in adolescents and has no known cause.

2. Congenital scoliosis: This type of scoliosis is present at birth. An abnormality in spinal development in utero defines this condition.

3. Neuromuscular scoliosis: Scoliosis caused by a neurological or muscular disorder. For example, cerebral palsy or muscular dystrophy.

4. Degenerative scoliosis: Scoliosis that develops in adults as a result of age-related changes in the spine. An example of this is arthritis.

Scoliosis severity is measured by the angle of the spines curve. Mild scoliosis measures between 10-20 degrees, moderate scoliosis measures between 20-50 degrees, and severe scoliosis measures over 50 degrees.

Exercises TO IMPROVE scoliosis

To naturally straighten a scoliosis, you will need to activate the muscles that have deactivated because of the curve. As your spine pulls in one direction, the muscles pull to that side. This disengages important muscles for spinal alignment.

A couple of sentences cannot explain Functional Patterns. However, the basic premise involves the activation of necessary muscles through the use of truly functional movement. Reactivating these muscles can take some time.

Our practitioners verbally assist you into positions during exercise to switch those muscles back on. Once you begin to feel these muscles again while training, you will begin to notice more symmetry in your structure and less pain.

While everybody is different, this has been the experience of many people who have given Functional Patterns a chance. We have helped many people avoid spinal surgery by straightening their spines naturally.
