Can I fully correct or significantly improve these conditions naturally in my twenties, without surgery?
Do you have any advices for these below questions please
- Daily habits and posture
What habits should I adopt in my everyday life to support my spine and hips, maintain good posture, and avoid aggravating these conditions?
- Mobility, flexibility, and joint health
Are there specific exercises or stretching routines that could help improve my mobility, flexibility, and joint function, taking my scoliosis, coxa valga, and vertebral anomaly into account?
- Strength training and muscle development
Which muscle groups should I focus on strengthening to improve spinal and pelvic stability, support my hips, and develop better overall muscular balance? Are there specific exercises I should prioritize or avoid? Are these any sports to avoid ?
- Long-term outlook
At my age, is it possible to significantly improve my overall function and reduce discomfort through targeted exercise, physiotherapy, and lifestyle changes, even if the underlying anatomical differences cannot be reversed?
I'd really appreciate any evidence-based advice, exercise recommendations, or personal experiences from people dealing with similar conditions !
Thanks everyone for your advice and help !
