Im 14 years old [girl] and i have severe scoliosis (over 50 degrees, i expierence pain and compressed nerves, etc.)
currently, i am wearing a cheneau gensingen brace and am getting schroth therapy, so my spine has been straightening.
i’ve always wanted to do contortion, but im scared that stretching my spine is gonna make my scoliosis worse and be counterproductive with my therapy bcs online it says not to hyper extend your back.
it just sucks because its something ive alqays wanted to be good at, but if its gonna cause my back to get worse and stop getting better than i wont do it.
to summarize: does contortion have any negative effects on people with scoliosis?
thank you
