Rotational Breathing

Corrective breathing for scoliosis…

Corrective rotational breathing is a major component of the Schroth method. The focus is on changing the patient’s breathing pattern in order to decrease the risk of scoliotic curve progression. The patient focuses on the expansion of the collapsed concave areas during inspiration.  This enhances mobility and promotes a more balanced posture. The basis for the use of this technique can be found in the paper, “The Effect of an Exercise Program on Vital Capacity and Rib Mobility in Patients with Idiopathic Scoliosis,” by Hans-Rudolf Weiss, M.D.
