- Опубликовано: 31 июл 2024
- More back strengthening! Here is a series of scoliosis-friendly exercises that does NOT require any equipment. Instead of weights or bands, we use gravity and higher repetitions to work on endurance of your postural muscles. This beginner-level workout is appropriate for people who have back pain, symptoms, or are new to exercising. This may be challenging for people who need help to transition on and off the floor - in the near future, we’re planning to create a workout that focuses on seated and standing positions.

Your cueing is THE BEST! Also, the 5 second timer for the last exercise was very helpful!
Yay! Thank you! Appreciate the encouragement :)
This beginner workout is amazing. I definitely what I needed. It's always best to start at the beginning. I definitely worked up a sweat. Thank you.
Nancy Moule 😊
So glad! Yes all the beginner workouts can still be challenging, in a gentle way ☺️
Love all of your exercises and explanations thanks so much. Mind reducing the volume of the music slightly though. 😊
Hi! Oh thanks for letting us know. Do you mean the music of the intro clip, or the music playing during the explanations of each exercise, or when the workout is happening and I’m not talking?
Hello! I have been doing these exercises for more than a month, and I have definitely seen some improvements and most importantly I don’t feel pain anymore all thanks to your videos ❤ I would like to request a similar video related to back muscle strengthening with no equipment needed, but if it could be fore a moderate or advanced level please, I feel like I am ready to take on some challenge 😁
Here's another one that works a lot of your back muscles! ruclips.net/video/xmkPc0jYoJo/видео.html
First time doing one of your workouts! Thank you! I will definitely be checking out some of your other beginner videos!
We’re so glad you found us, yes please do check out our beginner workout playlist. More to come!
Hi physio Andrea,great set of exercises,
Before I joined TSC,I. Used to do many other exercises like the 3types of lateral planks,one with the body supported on on hand & foot,2nd on one forearm & foot &3rd type on one forearm & knee .Do you plan to incorporate them in your next video
Those versions of the sideplank are found scattered throughout our workouts, but you can change any sideplank in any of our workouts to another harder or easier version that you listed above.
Hi, thank you very much for your videos. Do you have any recommendations for someone who has lumbar scoliosis but additionally has a severe L2 L3 herniation? When I go to therapy it doesn’t help much, while your videos do help a lot, but I don’t know which excersises are ok for me and which ones are not. For example, cobra pose is recommended in many videos for herniated discs, but I know it is not recommended for scoliosis, so I don’t know what to do.
Hi there, thanks for sharing your background. We can't give specific medical advice over youtube, and your situation sounds like it requires a personalized assessment to determine how much of your symptoms are due to the herniation vs the scoliosis, and which modifications work for your body. Where in the world do you live?
@@TSCConnect Thank you for answering, I understand. I live in Colombia 🇨🇴.
Thank you for your great videos. They help a lot!
I know it's still very far, but there are some therapists in Chile & Brazil who might be able to do virtual visits with you
@@TSCConnect Thank you! I will look for them.
Which of these would be best for mid back?
They all work on mid-back because the muscles in the mid back connect to the shoulders or lower back - they usually span multiple areas (like the paraspinals, trapezius and latissimus)
How often should this be done to see results. Daily?
It depends on what results your aiming for - pain relief, strength, posture, cardio, general fitness etc… each will take different amounts of time highly depending on your current state
Does this work for rib hump?
People with structural scoliosis typically have a rib hump, it’s a hallmark sign of scoliosis. All of our workouts and advice are created for people with scoliosis, so they are generally safe. However if you are looking to decrease your rib hump, we recommend you work with a scoliosis-trained physiotherapist who can assess and treat your spinal condition.
Is it normal to have a huge tension in my neck after this workout ? 😢
As we can’t assess your technique and movements via RUclips, If you’re experiencing any pain or discomfort, please see a healthcare professional near you
Laying on a hard floor hurts my back , big time ...
Yes a mat or a folded blanket might help?
@@TSCConnect Thanks for the fast reply .
On a bare floor isn't going to happen .Major pain .
I'll try a blanket .
@@Obeijin yes we don’t suggest using a bare floor. We use thick mats for all our workouts
@@TSCConnect Thanks , I'll give that a try .
