Description

The correct way to interpret leg length discrepancies in regards to scoliosis is often misunderstood. In this online Pilates workshop, Erin Myers shares her considerable knowledge and well-researched techniques on the subject. 

Just because one hip is sitting a higher doesn't necessarily mean you're dealing with a difference in leg length. If you work with a client under the assumption that one leg is longer, you very well may accidentally create more pain for them in their spine, pelvis, and legs. Conversely, if you don't know how to assess a client who presents with scoliosis and are unable to discern if that client does in-fact have scoliosis, you would be doing them a disservice.

This workshop is designed to fill your toolbox with assessment techniques,. You’ll see a lesson taught to someone with a longer femur causing scoliosis and you'll experience some real-life client case studies where scoliosis and leg length discrepancies are at play.
