Experimenting with the Body - What's the Best Approach?

March was all about trying everything I know to look after myself. I am feeling fit and healthy but I don't feel like I am decreasing my curves....and I don't even know if that's possible at my age. I am just hoping to maintain my curves so they don't get worse.

What I have found is the more I look for answers to manage the progression of my curve the more people have come into my life to help me. I've started to network with organizations, yoga instructors, physio therapists, Alexander Technique instructors, nutritionists, chinese herbalists and trainers to put together the pieces and the best way to manage my scoliosis.

No one is giving me a simple answer to curing scoliosis except for surgeons. What I'm realising is that I have to take a quantum wellness approach - every little thing I do helps. Like most things its up to the individual to research and become 'an expert' in their condition and do what feels best for them. So I've started experimenting with other techniques to incorporate into my routine even when some want to discourage me from going down one path, and scare me into the other......
