I purchased a torso rotation machine
Yesterday I purchased a Cybex Eagle 4201 torso rotation machine for Scott. It cost $200.
It looks a lot like the machine in this video. In fact it probably is the same machine.
YouTube: Rotary Torso (Machine #18)
We plan to use it 3 times per week, 3 sets each side. That's a total of 6 sets per workout.
Congrats Dingo and Scott!
That is such great news Dingo! I'm so happy for you and Scott!!
I'm glad to hear that you will continue with Scott's x-rays because it's possible the rotation may have been reduced and the curve might still be there. Hopefully that's not the case and the curve is completely gone, but you don't know until you get the x-ray.
My daughter also had rotation and a curve that you could see, but at this point you can't tell she has scoliosis, her curve is not visible and her rotation is non-existent....but her curve is still there! Are you still going to continue with the rotation exercises? I sure think that would be a good idea until you get the next x-ray, another growth spurt may be on its way.
It would really be fabulous if this torso rotation exercise really had a positive effect on scoliosis. I can hardly wait to hear the results when more studies are completed.
Thanks for putting this thread together and keeping it alive!
