Then, not looking up from the floor, you need to bend as much as possible. After that, you should stretch the spine, raising your hands up. At the next stage, you need to press your back against the wall in such a way that the back of the head, shoulder blades, buttocks, calves and heels fit snugly against it. This position of the body is the most correct from the point of view of medicine. If you manage to fix yourself for a while in this position, then you can talk about a successful start.
There are various fairly effective exerciseswith scoliosis. Among them, the first place is occupied by the exercise "bicycle". To implement it, you need to lie on a flat surface, hands to wind over your head or stretch them along the body. The feet perform circular motions, imitating the movement of pedals while riding a bicycle.

Movements should resemble the process of crossing scissor blades when cutting something. In doing so, you should try not to raise your legs too high, and keep them as much as possible parallel to the surface on which the patient lies.
After a set of exercises in a lying positionYou can begin to perform exercises with standing scoliosis. Initially, it is necessary to stretch the joints well in the shoulders.

The next stage is exercise, lying on one side. Usually, all actions in this case should be performed alternately for each side. You can start with vertical swings. As well as at the last stage, it is important to do everything slowly and smoothly, as sharp movements can only exacerbate the situation. Addition to the previous exercise will be the circular movement of the legs with an extended toe. After all the desired exercises are passed on the right side, you can turn over and do all the same, lying on the left.
It is very effective to perform exercises withusing a stick. Standing on a level surface, your legs are shoulder-width apart, you need to raise your arms straight above your head, holding a stick in them. It is possible to execute flies with straight legs to the sides or to make turns with the body. A stick in the hands in this case helps to take the correct position of the spine and pull it out.
