]]> Comment on Yoga and Scoliosis | My Body is My Teacher by Karen Heneghan http://www.welcomeomdc.com/2010/06/01/yoga-and-scoliosis-my-body-is-my-teacher/comment-page-1/#comment-7914 Karen Heneghan Mon, 16 Jan 2012 12:36:08 +0000 http://www.welcomeomdc.com/?p=1582#comment-7914 My daughter who is 6 years old and has down syndrome has just been diagnosed with left lumbar scoliosis which measures 39 degrees. She has worn piedro boots since she started walking at 3 years old, and is very joint lax (quite normal in down syndrome, but bit freaky to watch when she can put both feet behind her head whilst laughing). They are in the process of organising a thoracolumbar brace, and are suggesting she wears it 23 hours per day, possibly for the next 10-12 years. However they do mention it may not work and surgery is a possibility but they wish to leave this until she has stopped growing (hence the 10-12 years). After the initial shock I'm now hunting down anything I can do to help her. Did the brace hurt at all? How inhibiting are they? etc. But I'm also interested to hear if you think there are yoga suggestions we could try to incorporate in our physio routines? Any suggestions (even if it's to try a local yoga teacher) would be great. We are in Windsor in Great Britain so bit far to travel to you but any ideas you can give me would be great. Kind regards and thanks for the information and support this gives.

In the class I attended everyone was too involved doing the poses and the only person that seemed mildly aroused was the instructor, who was 'critiquing' everyone's poses!
