The complex of therapeutic exercises for the back for scoliosis of the spine 1, 2, 3 degrees

Exercises for scoliosis 1 and 2 degrees is one of the most effective methods of removing lateral curvature of the vertebral axis. Dosed the exercises in this pathology allows to effectively work on muscle groups, which in a state of hypertonicity and restore muscular frame back. He would continue to support the vertebral axis in the right (physiological) position.

Peculiarities of the treatment of scoliosis gymnastics

Therapeutic exercises for scoliosis are most effective in children, as their spine is "soft and supple". It grows to 19 or 20 years old, so is subjected to correction through physical therapy and wearing orthopedic corset.

Conservative treatment methods can correct functional curvature of the spine. Correction of structural and organic changes – the area of activity of the surgeons.

The most Important rule that must be followed in performing therapeutic exercises for scoliosis, to stretch tense back muscles and train the weakened. Therefore, not all exercises in the complex are symmetric. Regular exercises to strengthen muscle corset exacerbating the imbalance in the spine and leads to further progression of scoliosis.

The Complex is composed by a doctor of physical therapy and have been practiced under his guidance. For patients with scoliosis 1 degree focus is on achieving stability of the spine, for scoliosis of 2 degrees to correct the deformity and pathology 3 degrees, except for two goals – trying to improve the overall physical condition of the person.

what to pay attention to the performance of

In antiscaling rehabilitation centers instructors pay attention to the following features when a person exercises.

1. Increase strength and muscle tone necessary to carry out carefully and consistently. With too intensive practice, the pressure increases in the abdominal cavity and increases the risk of displacement of internal organs.
2. monitor the health of the patient, the breathing should be smooth, without delay.
3. Are dangerous for the spine exercise: the bending, lifting, twisting. They need to be deleted from the set of exercises for the treatment of diseases of the back.
4. to Start gymnastic lessons during acute inflammatory diseases is unacceptable. Lifting weights and sharp turns of the torso in such a situation would provoke the rupture of muscle tissue.
5. If a person has weak muscular corset, to increase it gradually. Especially dangerous intense physical exercise if you have unstable vertebrae – while under this effect they can be shifted.
6. for scoliosis 2 or 3 degrees in the cervical spine training should begin with static exercises.
7. an Important aspect of treatment of scoliosis of 1, 2, 3 degrees is the timely connection of power exercises that should be done only after permission to do so.
8. If not in time to include in the complex of force exercises, will occur muscle "imbalance" in which the muscles will contract and relax asynchronously.

Example of a basic package

for scoliosis of 1 degree based medical complex gymnastics are symmetrical exercise with minimal load on the spine. They are easy to learn and perform correctly, which means to reduce to zero the risk of side effects.

The Movement from the base of the complex, although symmetric, but the back muscles are acting in different ways: weak – get a big load and train faster, and tense – less. This results in balancing the muscular system, the spine is aligned.

The Complex consists of a warm-up, main part and final. The number of reps 8-10, but immunocompromised patients may develop with four. All standing exercises are performed with correct posture control. The ideal position you can take, touching the wall protruding points: the shoulder blades, buttocks, calf and heels. A couple of steps forward – and the person is ready to exercise.

Warm up

1. Initial position (IP) – feet shoulder width apart. Raise hands through the sides up – inhale. Omit – an exhalation.
2. Walk on the spot lifting the knees high.
3. SP – brushes to the shoulders. Rotational movement of the shoulders forward and backward.

The Bulk of

4. IP – lying on his back, hands on shoulders, elbows parallel to the body. On the inhale hold the elbows out to the sides, exhale – return to the SP.
5. IP – lying on your back, arms along the body. Alternately raise bent leg, bringing the knee to the stomach – exhalation. Return to SP – inhale.
6. IP – lying on his back, legs bent at the knees. Raise the pelvis, bend in the thoracic region (but not in the back) – exhale. Return to SP – inhale.
7. IP – lying on your back, arms along the body. On the inhale pulling to the side of the hand where there is a bulge, and the otherhand pull up. On the exhale return to the SP.
8. IP – lying on his stomach, hands on the back of his head. On the inhale lift the chest, exhale – descend to the PI.
9. IP – lying on his stomach, one hand, by convexity, we start on the scapula, the other on the back. On the exhale stray in the direction of the convexity, on the inhale – return to the SP.
10. IP – lying on his stomach, arms along the body palms down. On the inhale lift the chest and one leg. On the exhale – IP. Repeat alternately with both feet.
11. IP – lying on his stomach, arms at sides, palms down. Abduction feet to the side of the lumbar convexity – breath. Return to the IP – exhale.
12. To scoliosis in the thoracic region. IP – lying on your side from the side bulges of the spine, arms are extended overhead. In the chest area enclosed hard roller. His free hand lowered along the body, exhale. Rises behind your head – inhale.
13. IP – standing on all fours. Stretch your right arm and left leg simultaneously – breath. Return to the IP – exhale. Repeat alternately.
14. IP – standing on all fours. Pressed to touch the chest with the floor.

Final part

15. IP – lying on your back, arms along the body. Set up straight hands behind your head – inhale. Return to the IP – exhale.
16. IP – standing at wall control posture, trying to cuddle tightly protruding points and not to bend the lower back. Hands bred to the sides, palms to the wall. Stretched out to the side – inhale, relax, exhale.

To the underlying complex physical therapy, the doctor will add the exercises that are necessary for a particular case. Exercises perform daily. Two months later, the specialist will review the results of the training. Usually, after diagnosis prescribe not only physical therapy but also massage. Together, these simple non-invasive methods of therapy can bring significant relief and full recovery from scoliosis.
