Any practices to lengthen the spin will be amazing, especially work to lengthen the right side of the body. We also want to strengthen; especially the core and the left side of the body. It will be very beneficial to work on stretching all connective tissues in the hips, sacrum, pelvis, lower back; especially hamstrings, piriformis, psoas, and IT bands.
Yin Yoga is awesome to break up acids, scar tissue, and fascia. Longer holds are ideal. At least 90 seconds to 2 minute holds. Organic movement between holds is all good to flush circulation.
Curve appears to be in both lower thoracic vertebrae and upper lumbar vertebrae. A guess would be T7 - L3
Muscles are typically tight on both sides of the curve.
GOAL: Lengthen concave curve and strengthen convex curve.
"Outside of curve": Muscles are longer and need to be strengthened.
"Inside of curve": Muscles are shorter and need to be lengthened.
Carry on left shoulder or left hand groceries, computer bag, luggage, etc. Add core strengthening workouts to daily regimen; crunches, leg lifts, especially the transverse abs. Drive either both hands on the wheel or left hand on the wheel. Try using the mouse on the left side vs the right side.
Avoid any backbends or upper spine temporarily. Focus on more lumbar spine decompression. Avoid most twists temporarily.
