Hi! What kind of therapy did you do?
What kind of therapy you did.. Please reply fiorella G. C

Thank you for yet another informative video Christine! Since I've found your youtube channel, my quality of life has improved. I'm very grateful. Danke schön
You're welcome! Alles Gute!
Thank you so much for your videos - I finally understand my body!
So glad to hear that!
Thank you for this. I am 33 and been living with scoliosis since 16. I practice yoga but often wondered which are the rotations to avoid or push further on. This has cleared it up for me. I look forward to learning more from your videos !!
Hi i wanted to ask if this help you out im 33 also and had scoliosis since 16 too i want relief and wonder does it help correct it somewhat
Did it work
I definitely felt that stretch. It was painful but I will get use to it
Thank you!
Thank you! 🙏❤️
I am an Indian. I am proud of you
Would love to try this exercise! 💚
great! Let me know how it goes
I have been experiencing chostachondritis due to severe scoliosis. I am healing, and your teaching is a tool for me. Thank you so much for your instructions.😊
Hope you find it helpful!
Have you healed up from that costochondritis
Xlnt video love the details
I will start doing these exercises for a whole month and see how it goes. I've been suffering from pain and am very insecure of my rib hump but seeing your instagram pictures of the big progress people have made gives me so much hope. Thank you... 🙏🕉
Update us
Did it help
Update?
Update us please
Thank you for the videos you really help
You're welcome! So glad that you find them helpful. Let me know what you would like to see more of on the channel!
Just wanna say that I did these exercises earlier this year and noticed quite a difference once my back had been trained more forward. I stopped doing the exercises for personal reasons and after some months noticed the rib hump return to how it looked before. So I've come back here to brush up on it and hopefully retrain it again, but I can clarify it made a difference at one point, so thank you :)
do you know whether this also helps uneven chest? I have both uneven chest and ribs due to scoliosis
Also how long does it take to notice difference? :)
that's great to hear!
How long did it take to see the difference??
Very helpful maam ....
so glad you find them helpful
Interesting! I have actually been doing some movement based therapy using similar principles of bending and rotation. Thankfully ive found amazing results (better than passive modalities imo). But i found that the direction of my rotated spine was different to what you mentioned. My T spine bent to the left more but actually rotated to the left side more as well. So my counteracting movement was bend right and rotate to the right side.
Do you think theres a big variance amongst those with functional scoliosis in the direction of rotation relative to direction of curvature?
Going to try this on my 9 year old son. He does have scoliosis, 58 degree thoracic curve, with a big right sided rib hump. I want to try to help with any discomfort he may have. I will be careful and not overdo it with him. Thank you very much for your knowledge.
How is he now?
How is he now?
Thank you!!!!
You're welcome!
Yeah thank you
Hello Jeanette, how are you doing??
Hello! Can this also be done for those post-surgery? If not, can you please release a yoga video for those who are post-op? :
Thank u
you're welcome! Thank you for watching
I added these exercises for my daughter who is already doing schroth exercises. Within 25 days of starting your these exercises there is huge reduction in her right rib hump. Thank you so much. Are these exercises good for her left lumber curve too?
She also has a small left lumber curve which is still same as before as measured by her doctor yesterday. Are these exercises good for reducing left lumber curve too? Or please suggest some exercises for reducing her left lumber curve too.
If her hump is on the right side what way does her spine curve??
That Hurts soooo much. Plus it starts the chronic shooting pains.
Please don't do anything that hurts. Yoga should never be painful.
Can you make another vid for this? There aren’t many on RUclips
noted!
I'm scoliosis with fused spine both thoraric and lumbar spine. I want to do pilates workout through youtube, but there are lots doing back bending moves. Does it okay to do those moves with fused spine?
Milfd scolosis at mid thoracie region with convexity toward the right side.
I have this so which one I try the one that you show or opposite one ? Please reply
Hi and thank you so much for all the videos! So helpful! Do you have one for a lumbar hump? I have a backward S, but the lumbar part is way worse than the torsal.
I've got plenty of practice videos for lumbar curves! check this one out ruclips.net/video/neYKUtw-c6g/видео.html
How many "reps" should i do for the final stretch you displayed, the one on the chair.
My daughter has dorsal scoliosis with right hump, what exercise will she need to correct the curve.
Excuse me in the first pose do you pull out the left shoulder blade ?
How do I know if I have S curve or C curve?
The only thing I know is that the right side of my waist is curvier than the left one...
Hello. the 20 minute core exercises are really helping and i have only just started them so, thank you for that. I'm living in France and have had X-rays on my spine which translated state that I have a left convex dorsal scoliosis with no rotation and a right convexity lumber scoliosis with rotation. I am confused as to which side I should work on! Help!
both sides! check out some of the s curve videos.
I have a question , if my right scapula is out how do i put it in with the rib hump ?
Where can i buy a medium hight yoga block in philippines ?
hi! does this work for lumbar scoliosis?
If the hump is on the left side then where do you have a left or right scoliosis ?

Thanks for the video... I am actually 25 years old and I have a left hump.. Let me try this
I have tried everything for my Scoliosis pain and SI joint pain..I am going to try these exercises and see if I get any relief.
Do you have lower back and hip, where my hips meet the ribs very tight?

Hello I wanted to know if these exercises can help reduce rib hump in a 26 year old adult?
I have right thoracic left lumber, can u tell me what is the best exercise for right thoracic to do everyday to fix it please??
You are absolutely right. Anyway how are you doing??
how if I have Stype curve? left thoracolumbar and right thorac? can I do this to improve right thorac rib hump?
Hi there, I'm not sure if I missed this in the video, but how often should these stretches be done? Are they a daily thing or just a few times a week?
That depends on your individual case! It's best to work with a teacher 1:1 to find the best exercises and they can help you with suggestions of how often to practice!
Thank you very much for the video.. btw, I have some questions, should I do all these 3 exercise on both sides? and how many sets and repetitions? thank you in advance..
The first one you might just want to do the "hump" side... if both shoulders are tight though you can do both sides! Start with 5 breaths in each pose and then you can do more if it feels good. Make sure to listen to your body... that's more important than a fixed number of repetitions. Our bodies are all different :-)
@@MoveWithScoliosis thank you very much...I appreciate that...I'll do yoyr advice..again thank you and keep it up and dont stop.. good day!
@@MoveWithScoliosis Hello again Madam.. at 05:36 when you say lift and lengthening, did you just do a side bend? I'm confused a little bit..thank you..
What if the hump is in the lumbar left part? can i still do this exercise? I mean if you have vertebrae rotation will this still work?
If my rib humps on the right side what side is my curvature??
hey miss i like to be slimmer but i have scoliosis would it be a problem if i be slimmer
Thank you for this! Were you trained in the Schroth method?
no, I have taken sessions in Schroth for my own scoliosis and have taken training with Schroth experts but I'm not a physiotherapist so can't certify in Schroth unfortunately.
@@MoveWithScoliosis Thanks, it definitely shows that you understand it
Hello phisical terapist sau I have scoliosis ...I was in shook I have 26... they dont say what type I have can I do this ....my right sholder are little lower and my right glute are weaker and right hip are in pain
Yoga is great for scoliosis if you do it correctly and take your individual curve in consideration and anything else that might go on in your body! Make sure to find a good teacher in your area.
I have a question, about almost 3 years ago I went for a spinal transfusion and still had a hump on my back and they told me the only way to make it go down was to remove a WHOLE side of ribs..I've been so self conscious because of it and it hurts to lay down on my back when I'm trying to work out . It hurts because of my uneven back ...will this still work ? Or do you have any recommendations to help ..?
this is for unfused spines! With spinal fusion you need to be very careful with twists especially. The first pose is ok but not the second one. There is no quick fix I'm afraid but there are exercises you can do to improve the appearance.
hi it's really amazing video i found I really like this stretch. I have a question. I had surgery last year can I do this stretch? or my rib hump could not be corrected after surgery? I hope you answer my question
Hi was your rib hump not corrected after the surgery?
Not the one on the chair! You can work with your breath and do a lot that way but because the spine is fixed de-rotation is not possible the same way it is for un-fused spines
How much time till it cures scoliosis.
can u do all exercise for scoliosis in one video plz i am 14 years old can i do this plz
On another comment she said to skip the rotations and work on
strengthening and elongating the spine
My friend is suffering from it. But he can’t do al this as his legs don’t work because of polio and his left hand as a contracture. Can you suggest anything for him ?
sorry I can't without seeing him...
Which rib sticks out for which side thoracic curve
Where the ribs are protruding at the back that is your convex side. Where they stick out at the front (if that's what you mean) could be where the curve changes direction... Make sure to get a proper diagnosis from your doctor.
Just want to make sure I'm doing this right : this is for a right curvature and the left rib sticking out?
This is for if your hump is on the right side
@@darkstar1481 right side of the back or front? Asking because the first picture she showed is of the back. Very confusing
Hello madam i have a scoliosis and lumbar my left side upper hips have humps what kind if yoga i should do?
if you have had a proper diagnosis then you can try some of my curve specific videos. If not make sure to get one or work with a knowledgeable yoga teacher 121
Will it cure ribhump i have exactly the same curve
ughh i wish i could have done this before i had my surgery
Am so scared of surgery 😪
Mhiz Bell's surgery isn’t that bad but if you have one make sure you keep light in your room if you don’t go out after a while.
@@fruityfruity1377 thanks for the advice i truly appreciate 🙌
you made this comment a long time ago but i was just wondering, given the option to have the surgery or not should i do it? it’s like 80’ and gives me a lot of pain
@@beths2186 definitely get surgery!!! you’re supposed to get surgery if your curve is higher than 45 degrees. or actually it may be higher than 35 degrees but either ways you’re not supposed to be living with a curve of 80. that’s really high and i don’t know if this is the answer you were looking for but i’m sorry, you NEED that surgery my friend :( well that’s unless exercises actually work for you
How long should this take until you start seeing some of what of results ?
that completely depends on your body, how well it responds, how old you are and how much you practice! If you practice daily give it 2-3 months and see if it makes a difference
Yogaberry Ok!! Thank you :)
Hey did it work??
have you seen any improvements yet?
Hello Christine, I have right lumbar scoliosis curve. So my rib hump is also on the right side. Should I do the exercises on the right side, as in the video?
these are more for thoracic scoliosis. Check out the videos about lumbar scoliosis!
How are you able to breathe into one side and out the other?
It's just bridging a mental connection I believe. To help get that stretch even deeper
Hii im aashka and i have kyphoscoliosis in my lower left back and i have hump also i think around 60% so i want to reduce my hump gradually and i want to increase my so is this excercise helpful to me please reply me quickly
I has the scoliosis and I’m 17 almost 18 now. And has the S curve ,the upper part is 37degree and a big hump😭Do I still have the chance to reduce the hump?
Me too! I have a C curve though and quite a noticeable hump that I'm really insecure about :( I think we still have a chance to reduce it we're still kinda growing so
Will this fix it or will it just help deal with pain? As I don’t have pain with my scoliosis but I do badly want to fix it as well as fix the rotation
you can improve the appearance of the rotation!
@@MoveWithScoliosis Yeah that’s what I meant 😂 thanks
I'm 26 and have a rib hump on left side of my back but I never had any pain. My physiotherapist told me that I have mild scoliosis and told me to do some exercises. After doing exercises I feel pain. Is it normal? Should I continue these exercises?
Did your physiotherapist give you specific exercises? Then you should check with them. In general pain is not good after exercise. A little aching is ok.
I am 18 years old I have problem of scoliosis and I can't perform the position of yoga cause of my disability I have problem in legs So plzz suggest me How can I get rid of scoliosis problem plzz reply me.......
Can you do one for hip hump for lumbar scoliosis too?
yes that's on the list!
Thank you soo much madam. But my question is that am 29 years of age is this exercise OK for me to do to recover
I'm not in a position to tell you if it's the right exercise for you as I don't know you but you can certainly give it a try!
What about combined scoliosis will it work?
I can't promise that it will work without knowing more! Focus on derotation and lengthening!
If rib hump is decreased or if there is no more rib hump anymore, does it mean spine is straighter now?
it means that there is less rotation.
how long would it take to see noticeable changes
that depends on lots of factors like your commitment, the right exercises for you (remember this is relatively general advice), your age etc
@@MoveWithScoliosis the only thing that’s noticeable is i have two ribs on my chest on the right side, the top two ones that stick out, the top is more out than the one below it tho. The doctor said my scoliosis is S curved, and it’s like 12 degrees and 10 degrees. and like 9 degrees. i plan on doing this every morning and night, will it help? i want to start lifting weights and i don’t want those two ribs sticking out
What if i have the right thoracic rib hump AND a slight lumbar curve as well (my left side of my waist sticks out) does this exercise work for S curves like mine
every scoliosis is individual so I can't tell you if this will work for you without seeing you. It depends on a lot of factors. It always best to get a tailored practice for YOUR body and curve! Feel free to get in touch at info@yogaberry.net if you want to schedule a private session.
@@MoveWithScoliosis i guess what im saying is could this make a lumbar curve worse or does this inly correct thoracic curves
I have this kind of scoliosis but my ribs are further out on the right side (the right side of my chest is sticks more out) so I don't know which way I should turn while doing these exercises
It's really important to find out your exact curve pattern! Whichever part is convex is what you pull in and then turn from that area.
i have the same thing it’s annoying asf, did u figure out any fix?
@@vownal8260 sorry, still haven't found anything. i hate it so much, but i guess i'll just have to live with it.
Hey, Actually I have already surgery scoliosis, can I do this excercise???
no this is not the right one for you! Check out the playlist for spinal fusion
@@MoveWithScoliosis spinal fusion
Omg lol her daughter is my classmate
B.
Hi my friend has the scoliosis
She has the c curve and she's 15 . Can it straighten or it will left like that the rest of her life 😢😢
Plz reply ASAP 👍
Her left breast is bigger than her right and a big bump on her right which is the ribs.
Depends if it's structural or functional. Structural is permanent unless spine treatment, like surgery or a brace, is received. Functional usually happens when you carry a bookbag on one side for too long, or you carry a very heavy book bag. it can be fixed and usually goes away after doing stretches. Your friend should go to the doctor to find out if it's structural or functional if she's concerned about it.
@@SweetRedxx it's functional because when she was 12 years she used to carry heavy books on her back on oneside of the schoolbag strap , she did visit a doctor, he told her to exercise
But she exercise and still no improvement ....
This yoga really help me for reduce ribhumb I did this exercise now my hump is not viable thnks
fantastic!
@@MoveWithScoliosis love from srilanka😍😍 u r the one of my life changer
I CANT BELIEVE SOMEONE UNDERSTANDS ME, i was so tired of being the only one who struggled with this one sided hump it seems so awful to me
I have lower back scoliosis when i try to straighten my posture the spine in fact by bringing my abdominal to the opposite side of the curve and keep it that way i get a pain on the left side of my back any stretching i should do to fix this?
Notice that my scoliosis stopped at 16 and did IRM picture and the doctors that i can stop wearing corses im 19 years old now
very hard to recommend anything without seeing you! Sounds like you feel the rotation? Poses like downward dog or half downward dog might be better!
@@MoveWithScoliosis yea when i rotate my body to the right i hear the cracks out loud
@@MoveWithScoliosis ill try the poses you told me thank you!
Hi! I’m sixteen and have the fusion surgery. I have a big rib hump and have been doing exercises but feel like it’s gotten bigger. If I could please get help I would greatly appreciate it. This is my biggest insecurity and going to a school full of people who don’t look quite like me makes it worse
Once your spine has been fused it's a little trickier as the hump is due to rotation of the spine pre surgery. Check out this video ruclips.net/video/4tj-jl444q4/видео.htmlsi=Lp-m03nfAB4wKUru
Can i do this for right thoracolumbar curve? My rib stick out on my left side (front view)
Same
Same 😩
Same. Please reply
My 5 year daughter congenital scoliosis got operated few months back for upper curve.. Still 2curves are there.. Can she do yoga... She is wearing brace.. Don't know how her future will be😢😭
ahh bless. That depends on her specific case... It will be important to make sure she is first of course well and comfortable in her body! I do work with kids but they tend to be a bit older. For that age it's really important to make movement fun and playful whilst promoting good alignment
I just don't understand the last excercise
Sorry this got terribly long but it is terribly important...Please HELP:
How's about some help for crippled people that can't get on their knees because of their arthritis and cannot even manage this on a bed because they are octogenarians? Attend in for some help because of the thumbprint picture for the video showed some help in the chair. Do you have other exercises in a chair that would help with some aerobic exercise for cardiopulmonary exercise considering really bad joints with hardly any cartilage left to speak of? I need to help my mom. I didn't know things were this bad, as I live afar. Btw, she has let curvature and rib hump - three or four ribs at the lower part of the back are pretty exaggerated and out of place - and has lost normal lower curvature even lordosis or swayback, by sitting on the side of the bed with her feet elevated on a stool reading books or doing puzzles on her lap in a nearly upright fetal position as her joints make it pretty difficult to get around the house with no cartilage in her knees and decrepitus in her hip joints and a completely destroyed ankle /fallen arch arthritic crumble. It is so bad I'm surprised she's not actually walking on her shin bone, it is so far out of whack.
Her heart through a clot down into her leg, and her kidneys were even going bad again, anyway, I got a vacation and came to see her and while I was resting up from my trip, she woke me up from the other side of the house and threw a closed door wailing enough to block out all other sound. When asking her what happened she couldn't answer me I don't know she said I don't know and she was just wailing. It was getting on my nerves because I just woke up I was wanting to help her but she wasn't telling me anything. Just rocking and wailing. I asked her if I needed to call emergency for her and she said no; can I do anything to help you , no again. You're holding your knee, is it your knee, did it slip out of place, do you need ice, do you need your heating pad what can I do for you. I don't know I don't know. Wailing.
MOM! WHAT CAN I DO?
NOTHING, there's just terrible pain in my leg, I was standing in the bathroom in front of the sink and it went to sleep. And it was tingly and then it started hurting real bad! Wailing. Rocking.
DID YOUR BONE SHIFT!
NO! It just hurts it hurts so bad.
I grabbed the phone from the other side of the bed and pulled it over next to her WAILING. . .MOM! HERE'S THE PHONE CALL 911. ONLY YOU KNOW IF YOU NEED IT. I SAY CALL 'EM !... and probably left the room because I cannot tolerate loud noises because I have PTSD and I can handle some emergencies pretty darn good but she didn't want any help so what could I do I went straight to the front room for my cell phone as soon as I dug it out I could hear the ambulance already on its way because the firehouse is just right around the corner.
Thank God she called him when they did because as soon as they got her out of the house and on the gurney she had a heart attack on the trip to the ambulance! At the hospital it was a balancing act save the leg but then indications came to be saved the life save the heart then they found out we need to save the kidneys and then had to wait about 3 days I think to get her kidneys well enough by changes of medications that were kind of rough on her kidneys to ones that were quote "kidney kind". When her kidney labs were good enough, and they had already placed a not very invasive these days pacemaker as an an emergency thing after a day they had to take the chance but since it's not very invasive these days like in the olden days of Medicine... a risk well worth taking. 3 days later they went in to remove all of the clots. You see the pacemaker had to make the heart stronger so that the leg surgery could be done. Her lower limb was dying since the clots got there. And on top of all that wouldn't you know what she had gone anemic again so they had to give her blood right after the pacemaker. I've got to get her moving her heart is getting stronger with the electric signal making it beat. It has begun to beat on-time the pacemaker is a backup. They have some electronic Bluetooth kind of way of holding this thing over it so that it won't work to see what her heart will do on its own and then they take that little device away and the pacemaker keeps its metronomic timing. The job of Rehabilitation from her long stay at hospital, is up to me because there are many things that she cannot do because of her joints and I don't want pushy physical therapist trying to make her do exercises, only to find out that it cannot be done cuz my mother will try to do it, like a good patient - and she will even try and try - she will even hurt herself, only to be too hurt and too sore to do it the next couple of days, or to even be able to get herself out of bed to go to toilet. I have experience in the field of Rehabilitation and Elder Care and believe me I've got the professional Detachment to go along with it I've even got burnt out. I am empathetic but I am not sympathetic, I will not go easy but I will not go hard. I will only expect my mother to do as much as she possibly can because I know she will try to do the utmost and I can stretch her out a little farther than that just for the sake of range of motion, but when her bones start grinding and making those noises, I already know it's time to quit before she gets the words out of her mouth. Oh another detail is she has the bad lift foot and extremely bad left knee that is bowed out something terrible and she can only control a cane with her right hand / wrist. Using the left it wobbles too much and she doesn't have control as she is VERY right-handed. Furthermore she has not walked with her right leg in time with the cane moving forward simultaneously she is supposed to be on the cane to support the right leg but she uses the cane in her right hand moving in time with the left bad ankle if you can understand that. She should be using it in her left hand to support her when she is using part of her body to support weight off of the right knee. So she hasn't been supporting the knee at all and this I'm sure besides the dowagers hunt she is starting to get from this upright fetal position bedside activity business that has encouraging that the thoracic forward curve she has a sidewards s-curve because of the years of Leaning support on one side which has contracted all those muscles on one side she can hardly even contract the muscles on the side that's pooched out. On top of that consider this I am almost positive that there is some twisting in the lower lumbar; the right side is contracted, the left side is out, and the left leg is shorter and the right leg has become too long. I have figured out some exercises on the side of the bed such as trying correct upright posture and trying to act like she's scooting back in a chair lifting one cheek and scooting one leg back and so forth. Also exercising good posture doing what I have begun to call the One Cheek sneak because of language and understanding and her confusion of overthinking something and making it harder than it has to be I finally got down to my brothers' level and said "Mom just do the One Cheek Sneak" like you're slipping up one butt cheek to let a hopefully silent and non-smelly one escape, and then the other one - she got to laughing a little bit, and nowcompletely understood! Thank God for small favors, you know what I mean?
Acting like she's getting back in a chair gives a little bit of a twist for the lumbar some stretch and some contraction equal and opposite cuz I really don't know what else to do. And the side to side exercise I worked out for her was to act like a rubber band is suspended between two fixed places and then a finger moves it from side to side to indicate that she should only use her middle to contract one side of the ribs and then the other side so that it completely stretches out the opposite side well there was confusion there too and she complicated it by overthinking it and made it extremely difficult until I finally came out with the rubber band idea and to try to keep her head right in the middle of the space her pelvis takes up and that when she goes from side to side she shouldn't just be like a metronome her head should actually wobble in one place within the imagined pelvic space only up higher and have her looking in the mirror to do that exercise. So that she can get the neck stretches in, too, because her neck has become quite stiff from barely ever moving it. Is there any more than what I'm doing. Her Mobility depends upon it as does my career. She is definitely not a person that would farewell at a nursing home. She would not be able to sleep, she is too independent, she will follow the nurses and the nurses aides but as soon as someone gets snippy or rude with her, oh, my God, that would be very bad for my mother's heart and her mind. There would be retaliatory snippiness from the aides, there might even be some ungentle transfers to and from the bed to and from the pot ungentle touches where cleanup is concerned or maybe not as good or no clean up when it was needed, but only near the shift end causing bad skin and possibly soaring if pressure releases were not done during the night, or daytime if up in a chair; even some of the nurses especially for a nurses who can get on a plane and fly right back to their country if they ever got in to trouble.
I am really sorry to hear that you and your mum are having to go through this. Really hoping that you can get the help that you need. Best wishes, Christine
Is this for S curvature not reverse S ?
it's focused on thoracic curves. Usually I demonstrate for right thoracic left lumbar
If my hump is on the right side does that mean I have a left sided curve or right sided curve?
i assume you are right handed, we're the same, right side curve
most likely right sided but best to have a proper diagnosis from a doctor!
I have left side hump which side i need to rotate plz help
think about lengthening the right side and bringing the left ribcage forward!
You mean i need to bent on the left side and twist toward to right side?
Plz reply I need ur help
Does it really work? I'm losing hope 😭
Can you reduce your bump at the age of 20?
it depends! I have certainly seen appearance reduced!
My biggest insecurity. I can’t wear what i want 😭
I'm surprised people are still saying " hump" I think curvature is a little more sensitive to people with severe scoliosis!
Where and how can i meet you i have mild scoliosis i don’t know which exercises i can do
I'm based in the UK! You can find more info on my classes here www.yogaberry.net/
Oh, but this rotation to the right doesn't seem right.... The spine is already twisted backwards. There are other ways to open the top of the shoulder. Together with derotating the upper body to the left.
yes you're right in your thinking. I would probably not teach it like that anymore. I'm hoping it's helpful for people to rethink there twisting poses in yoga though and that they might have to be with a different focus on the right and left side.
