Using yoga to help with scoliosis.

1st August, 2008.

One of the things that I notices is that my spine seems to be a lot more agile these days. During the practice I find that I can get much more out of my asana if I pause between sides (do right, pause, and then the left side.)


In Parivrtta Parsvakonanasa I can get much more space in my torso if I adjust my ribcage for the scoliosis.

Three quarters away through the practice I felt a little nauseous, but after a short while it passed.


While doing Urdhva Dhanurasana I had a hard time holding the asana while shifting my ribs.
You have to be very careful when moving your spine in backbends.
