How 1-1 Pilates Sessions can help with Scoliosis!

Scoliosis affects children of all races but is more common in girls than in boys (ratio of 7:1). In Singapore, the prevalence of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis in schoolgirls is 1.4 percent at 11 to 12 years of age and 2.2 percent at 13 to 14 years of age; thus, the older the child, the higher the prevalence of scoliosis (according to Health Hub)

✨Scoliosis is a 3D deformity of the spine✨

This is why working with a Pilates teacher who understands that there is a rotational component of Scoliosis is important.

While Pilates cannot cure Scoliosis and by no means a silver bullet, the emphasis on the spine and balancing muscle development makes Pilates an ideal exercise modality.
