Frequently Asked Questions

Can I lose fat while managing scoliosis?

Yes, fat loss is achieved through a caloric deficit, but for those with scoliosis, it is vital to focus on low-impact movements that prioritize spinal health and muscular balance.

Avoid high-impact jumping, heavy spinal loading like traditional back squats, or extreme twisting motions that may increase pressure on the concave side of your curve.
