Episode 42: Pilates Exercises to Avoid with Scoliosis and How to Modify

Pilates offers many health benefits, but it can be dangerous for scoliosis patients — unless you make some modifications.

In this episode, I’m covering:

  • Which Pilates poses to avoid
  • How to analyze risks to your curve
  • How to modify Pilates poses to make them safe for scoliosis patients
  • Props that make it easier to adapt Pilates poses

Tune in to learn how to protect your curve and practice Pilates safely!
