June 26 | International Scoliosis Awareness Day T June 26 | International Scoliosis Awareness Day

Today we recognise and raise awareness of scoliosis—a spinal condition affecting millions worldwide. Supported by the Scoliosis Research Society @scoliosis_sr, this day aims to shine a light on early detection, treatment options, and support for those living with spinal curvature.

Scoliosis can affect people of all ages, with many first diagnosed during adolescence. While severity varies, early screening and physical rehabilitative therapies are key.

This International Scoliosis Awareness Day, we stand with those living with scoliosis and the healthcare professionals working to support them.

🌀 If you or someone you know is navigating scoliosis, share your story and help raise awareness.

Together, let’s continue to #InvestInYourSpine — because every curve tells a story.

DID YOU KNOW? 🧠🦴 At birth, the human spine DID YOU KNOW? 🧠🦴

At birth, the human spine has 33 vertebrae—but as we grow, some of them fuse together, leaving most adults with just 26! These vertebrae support everything from our head to our hips, playing a vital role in posture, movement, and protection of the nervous system.

✨That’s why it’s so important to Invest in Your Spine—because a healthy spine supports a healthy life.

This World Spine Day, let’s celebrate the incredible structure that keeps us upright and moving!

💡 SPINAL HEALTH TIP: Stretch Regularly for a he 💡 SPINAL HEALTH TIP: Stretch Regularly for a healthier Spine!
Stretching is one of the best ways to maintain a healthy spine and prevent spinal pain. Regular stretching helps improve flexibility, increase blood flow, and reduce muscle stiffness that can contribute to back discomfort.

📚Evidence-Based Stretching Tips:
🔵 Cat-Cow Stretch: This movement encourages spinal flexibility and mobility, which helps alleviate tension in the back and neck.
🟢 Child's Pose: A restorative stretch that elongates the spine, reduces tension in the lower back, and improves overall flexibility.
🔵 Neck Circles: Gently stretching the neck in a full circle can help reduce strain and prevent discomfort from poor posture or prolonged sitting.
📝 Research shows that regular stretching can help prevent back pain and improve posture.

Make stretching a daily habit to keep your spine strong and healthy!
