Exercises to Reduce HyperKyphosis The normal thoracic spine can has a lateral curvature, or kyphosis, of between 20 to 40 degrees. A greater (or lesser) degree of curve is considered a spinal deformity. When the thoracic portion of the spine curves 45 degrees or more, it is considered a problematic type of thoracic kyphosis. This video is made of educational purposes only and you should see a Chiropractor familiar with HyperKyphosis correction prior to attempting these on your own. Severe pain and Scoliosis may result from improper use the these exercises. Typically, HyperKyphosis is also associated with anterior head translation and posterior thorax translation thus this video addresses all three components. HyperKyphosis of 50-60 degrees or high may require a KyphoBrace made by Scolibrace.
