I was born with a slight scoliosis. It was never enough to get flagged in those gym-class tests where the nurse made up bend over so she could see the line of the spine. But it was enough to cause pain when I carried the bells in marching band and when I over-twisted in synchronized swimming.

After I was hit by a car as a pedestrian and got xrays from a chiropractor, he showed me just how much my spine was off.
Ten years later, I went back to the same chirpractor and asked for a comparison xray. I said I had grown two inches as a result of yoga, and I was sure the curve was gone. He insisted that was not likely as he had never seen such results in his 30 years.
Sure enough, my spine was straight.
(did I tell that the step by step process of how to connect to healthy posture is a huge part of my cohort program??? you may not have to hire that posture coach or somatic therapist)
