Lordosis is a closely similar problem to scoliosis, however the spine does not resume an “S” or “C” shape curve. The spinal column is slightly bent inwards in this type of condition which puts stress to the other areas of the spine. Aside from its disadvantages in term of handling the weight of the body, a person who is suffering from such state has a poor posture. This in return would give an unpleasant appearance which would have a great impact on the self-confidence of a person.

Our spine is designed to have a certain curve in order for the vertebrae to function properly. However, abnormalities in the curve do provide more harm than good to the back of a person. The best thing for any person who is experiencing this type of condition is to get medical help. Not only would this provide treatment to the problem, it would also prevent further injuries which usually results from the constant bearing of weight.

Imbalance within the muscles around the spine and hip area commonly causes this problem to occur. It is often due to the tightness, overstretching, and eventual weakening of the muscle tissues which results to the imbalance known as the lower crossed syndrome.

Ask your doctor regarding the necessary treatment methods and rehabilitation programs that will help you get past the condition. Do not attempt to experiment on your own as this will bring you nowhere. As a matter of fact, this will only add more problems to the situation on board.

When it comes to treatment, most of the methods are more of a preventive and correction measure as it deals with the spine. Braces are usually installed on the lower back of a person which helps in providing support and good posture to the vertebrae. Back supporters are great for the prevention of more injuries on the spine due to the improper distribution of weight. These are usually worn for 23 hours for the recommended length of weeks in order for the spine to correct it in the long run.

In severe cases, metal braces are placed on the spine to help in correcting the vertebrae of the client. Again, weight bearing activities should be avoided in order to hasten the recovery process. Surgical fixations are sometimes conducted especially if a part of the spine has been damaged.

Exercises for the core and back are essential in recovering the proper posture and condition of the spine. You would need to stretch your back and hip in order for the spine to be corrected. A hip flexor stretching exercise will enable the iliopsoas muscle to stretch which will help in putting the spin in a natural curve. Abdominal crunch also strengthens the core which is vital to the structural integrity of the spine. Twisting crunch, bridge, and lower back stretch are also great for stretching and strengthening purposes. Repeat the process several times a day until you attain a good spinal condition with a natural curve. Do not try exercises that are not approved by your doctor.
