Hi everyone,

Just curious as to what pain relief you use to help with scoliosis pain?

Mine just doesn't seem to be helping anymore. I'm waiting on a call from doctor to see about changing it.

Thanks

      Hi,

      Thank you for the reply. Wow that must be painful if your on morphine patches. I'm having trouble as I can't take anything strong enough to help my pain due to driving. I've just been re referred back to neurosurgeon again as discomfort is really bad.

      I hope your pain wasss for you, it's awful being in discomfort

      Take care x

    In my case, Bikram Yoga gave me complete pain relief. Before I started my practice, my dr. wanted to insert a narcotic pump hooked up to my spinal column. He said that was my only option other than surgery. Instead, I started practicing Bikram Yoga about 3.5 years ago. After the first class I felt a little bit better, and by my 5th class I was pain free. The only times I notice it creeping back is if I go longer than a week between classes.
