Just by chance I found this equipment, they don't mention anywhere in their website the word "scoliosis" (which says it all really...), but I just wondered, in your opinion, could it have any benefits at all for us as well?

I'd particularly appreciate the opinion of independent and knowledgeable (specialists even better ;) forum members. Thanks a lot

Okay, no replies, fair enough. And if I left out the bit where I only ask for unbiased professional opinions and welcomed ANY opinion whatsoever, would I get some sort of reply? ;)
The d^mn thing was shown on a BBC widely popular programme some weeks ago. Cheers

Alistair. In my opinion, for anybody with spine problems, it looks like it might exacerbate them. For anybody without a spine problem, it looks good for core muscles, arm and shoulder muscles.

There you go, I got my answer:

SpineX is the fitness machine for strengthening and maintaining of healthy spine.

It is not recommended for therapeutic purposes, as each back problem is very individual and a licensed physician only who is familiar with you particular condition may give you a recommendation how to treat your problem. Please consult your doctor. We can send on request to your doctor clinical research report.
Best regards,
Customer relation team.

Alistair,

Frankly, I watched the video and it hurt just to watch it. The position that the spine is in during the "work out" looks very uncomfortable, even for a normal spine
