Scoliosis Exercises for Prevention and Correction - Health In Your Hands

Boring, redundant and effective
So after a few years of working out and doing yoga and pilates religiously, my circumstances changed and I couldn't go to the gym anymore. You'd be surprised to know how quickly your hard won fitness goes spiraling down the toilet once you stop exercising.

Anyhow, I'm one of those lucky apple-shaped chicks with a long torso, big chest, and no butt to serve as a counterbalance. Thus, I'm not really just top heavy, I'm "front" heavy which leaves my poor spine and scoliosis with the daunting task of keeping me upright. Anyway, the last couple months have been agony. I've been having trouble sleeping, getting out of bed and even standing up. I'm only 30 for god sakes, so I decided I was going on a crusade to put an end to this pain. Ordering this DVD seemed like a good start.

If you are looking for a gentle, therapeutic series of exercises to address your scoliosis, considering purchasing this DVD.

The DVD gives you a choice of three types of exercises...

It is a companion DVD.
Dont be mislead, this DVD is not a stand alone version for the Scoliosis program offered in Your Plan For Natural Scoliosis Prevention and Treatment. I highly recommending reading the book and using this DVD to understand the exercises more. I made this mistake and had to wait for the book to get delivered to understand how to use this DVD. Overall both are excellent resources for scoliosis.

Misleading, rushed, and lacks educational component regarding spinal health.
In all honesty I bought this DVD because of it's sterling reviews below. However, I am greatly disappointed and would not recommend this DVD to those who want a thorough as well as relaxing experience trying to heal their body of/ or prevent scoliosis.

I thought this would be a "step by step" DVD without the need for equipment and or assistance. There are multiple exercises that require an exercise ball or someone to help you complete the exercise and or stretch.

The DVD formatting also lacks the ability to leave the current exercise and return to the main menu. I know how to operate a DVD player and remote. This is clearly an internal issue as my other DVD's have the ability to go back to the main menu when I press "menu." It just keeps repeating the current exercise.

I DISLIKE how fast each stretch and exercise is demonstrated. If this is a DVD I am paying $50 for I want this to be a step by step process - don't show me how to do one side in 10...
