A single yoga pose each day may improve spine curvature for scoliosis patients.


A new study claims performing a single yoga pose for 90 seconds for at least 3 days a week could reduce spine curvature in patients with scoliosis in as little as 3 months. 

The side plank involves lying on one side of the body with straight knees, and propping up the upper body with the elbow and forearm. Patients required to perform the side plank on weaker side of spine.
  
The Yoga pose improved spine curvature by around 32% among all patients
