Scoliosis
Rolfing's Understanding of
Scoliosis
Scoliosis and lordosis are
clinical terms that identify spinal exaggerations. In using the
terms, we fall into the trap of understanding the imbalance as
solely or mostly confined to the spine. But scoliosis is a
structural imbalance of the body as a whole. The spinal
imbalance affects the arms, legs, head pelvis, and rib cage as
well as the rest of the
body.
Since the majority of cases are mid thoracic
right cases this means eighty percent of all cases have
decreased heart, lung, and cardiovascular capacity. The
body’s diaphragms are affected by the side bends.
Scoliosis’ side bends cause rotation and compression
issues in the thorax, causing an inefficient use of lung,
heart and circulatory space that further impairs the
body’s optimal performance and posture.
A person who has Scoliosis tends to suffer from
headaches, insomnia, back pain, shallow breathing and
sciatica which are all brought about by having an
elongated musculature on one side of their bodies and a
shortened musculature on the other side of their bodies.
This is what causes the curvature of the
spine.
How Rolfing
Helps Scoliosis Patients
As the scoliosis patient walks
into the Rolfing Clinic, the Rolfer assesses the person’s
posture and structural balance to ascertain the extent of the
imbalance n the
feet, knees or pelvic area as well as gauging any other outward
indicators of scoliosis symptoms.
Rolfing is used as a means to improve these
conditions by realigning and lengthening the shortened
connective tissue that wraps around the muscles. In other
words, it de-rotates this connective tissue. This
improves your posture and movement, which can help reduce
or eliminate the headaches, back pain, shoulder and neck
pain that is brought on by Scoliosis.
Rolfing specializes in de-rotating the
connective tissue of the thorax and entire body to bring
a certain level of balance and peace to beings with
rotoscoliosis. The Rolfing technology takes the whole
being into consideration when exploring how to work with
each individual, seeing them for more than just the
product of their environmental conditioning. Certified
Rolfing has the capacity to release, realign, and balance
the whole body
Besides looking at scoliosis, Rolfing also helps
those with kyphosis and lordosis.
