ScoliSMART Exercises vs. Other Scoliosis Exercises By: Aatif Siddiqui D.C. The spine is perhaps more associated with strength, stability, courage, and durability more than any other part of the human body. It is therefore understandable just how frustrating it can be when you find out that the very thing that is supposed to support you -- your spine -- cannot do so because of a condition that causes it to curve. Scoliosis can afflict anyone, at anytime, anywhere. And because there really isnt much information about the condition, there really isnt a definitive treatment for the condition that is guaranteed to be 100% effective and safe. That is, before the Scoliosis Booth Camp and Small Curve Camp of ScoliSMART. ScoliSMART is completely dedicated to research intending to identify, prevent the worsening of, and treat scoliosis. To this end, ScoliSMART has put together a number of programs intended to address the issue of scoliosis, increase the awareness of people about it, and promote better treatment methods for the condition, particularly those that do not involved highly uncomfortable and potentially dangerous treatments and methods. One of these programs is the Scoliosis Boot Camp, a 10-day treatment program specially designed to help patients with spinal curvature of over 25 degrees. This program is intended to be a support center where patients can gain control over their scoliosis curvature and also deal with the issues and problems that come with the condition, both emotionally and physically. The comprehensive program of scoliosis exercises done at the camp is designed to retrain the muscles and brain to learn how to work together again, without pain or exhaustion, which is usually typical of people who suffer from the chronic pain and weariness that comes with scoliosis. The exercise program being taught at the camp is far better than other similarly-themed exercise programs because it does not deviate in any way in its goal to focus on dealing with all aspects of scoliosis, making it easier to remember, get into, and make into a routine. As with any exercise routine, repetitions train the muscles until it is practically muscle memory, with the body adjusting thusly. Once the body has adjusted to the routine, automatic aspects of the training, such as posture and proper movement, will help ensure that the spinal curvature does not worsen, and in many cases reduce the spinal curvature. These scoliosis exercises are also designed to help patients deal with the chronic pain that many complain about when they have scoliosis. Other exercises, not really designed to inhibit and reduce the symptoms of scoliosis, may actually cause a person even more pain, or might even induce more spinal damage, which is why unless it is backed by testing, and evaluation, like what the scoliosis exercises of the Scoliosis Boot Camp are, it might not be a good idea to try them. Also, unlike other scoliosis exercises such as yoga and Pilates, which are mostly taught by health buffs or even exercise experts, the Scoliosis Boot Camp have actual doctors supervising and teaching patients how to do the exercises properly. This means that docotrs who know the actual science that goes behind the claims teach the exercises correctly.
