Stop doing yoga because of my scoliosis?

Not at all: Scoliosis treatment depends on age to some extent. If you are still growing, the scoliosis can progress and needs to be evaluated for bracing or surgical treatment. Most scoliosis requires muscle strengthening to mitigate the spinal imbalance and yoga is a terrific means of accomplishing this. Yoga itself is not one entity and so the answer also depends on the type of yoga.
