AC - Skoliose

SKOLIOSE

Liebe Kunden,

Mit dieser Seite möchten wir Ihnen einen verständlichen Überblick zum Thema Skoliose geben.
Wir erklären grundlegende Zusammenhänge, zeigen mögliche Auswirkungen auf Haltung, Bewegung und Belastbarkeit auf und erläutern, welche Rolle Bewegung, Training und ein aktiver Lebensstil dabei spielen können. Unsere Inhalte basieren auf aktuellen wissenschaftlichen Erkenntnissen sowie auf langjähriger Erfahrung aus dem Trainings- und Gesundheitsbereich. Ziel ist es, Ihnen die Möglichkeit zu geben, sich frühzeitig zu informieren, Zusammenhänge besser zu verstehen und offene Fragen oder Unsicherheiten zu klären.

Skoliose beschreibt eine dreidimensionale Veränderung der Wirbelsäule. Dabei kommt es nicht nur zu einer seitlichen Krümmung – häufig in Form einer S- oder C-Krümmung –, sondern auch zu einer Rotation einzelner Wirbelkörper. Von einer Skoliose spricht man, wenn die seitliche Abweichung der Wirbelsäule einen bestimmten Grad überschreitet. Die Krümmung kann dabei unterschiedliche Abschnitte der Wirbelsäule betreffen oder sich über mehrere Bereiche erstrecken.

Skoliose tritt häufig bereits im Jugendalter auf und bleibt oft lange unbemerkt. Nicht jede skoliotische Veränderung geht automatisch mit Beschwerden einher. Studien zeigen, dass ein erheblicher Teil der Bevölkerung skoliotische Merkmale aufweist, ohne Einschränkungen oder Schmerzen zu verspüren. Dennoch kann eine veränderte Wirbelsäulenstatik langfristig Einfluss auf Haltung, Muskelbalance und Belastungsverteilung haben.

Ein gezielter Umgang mit Bewegung, Training und Körperwahrnehmung kann dabei helfen, die Wirbelsäule aktiv zu unterstützen, muskuläre Ungleichgewichte auszugleichen und die Belastbarkeit im Alltag zu verbessern.

Anatomie & Besonderheiten der Skoliose
Bei einer Skoliose ist die Wirbelsäule nicht nur seitlich gekrümmt, sondern zusätzlich rotieren einzelne Wirbelkörper. Dadurch entsteht eine dreidimensionale Veränderung der Wirbelsäulenform. Diese Rotation kann dazu führen, dass eine Körperseite stärker belastet wird als die andere.
Durch diese asymmetrische Belastung entstehen häufig muskuläre Ungleichgewichte:
Einige Muskelgruppen sind dauerhaft verkürzt oder überaktiv, während andere abgeschwächt sind. Genau hier setzt gezieltes Training an.
Skoliose & Beschwerden – was ist möglich?
Nicht jede Skoliose verursacht Schmerzen oder Einschränkungen. Viele Menschen leben beschwerdefrei mit einer Wirbelsäulenkrümmung. Dennoch können auftreten:

muskuläre Verspannungen
einseitige Belastungsgefühle
schnelle Ermüdung bei längerem Sitzen oder Stehen
eingeschränkte Beweglichkeit

Ob Beschwerden auftreten, hängt weniger von der Krümmung selbst ab, sondern stärker von Muskelkraft, Beweglichkeit und Belastungssteuerung.
Training bei Skoliose – worauf es ankommt
Bewegung ist bei Skoliose grundsätzlich sinnvoll, wenn sie gezielt und angepasst erfolgt. Ziel des Trainings ist es:

die Rumpfmuskulatur zu stabilisieren
muskuläre Dysbalancen auszugleichen
die Körperwahrnehmung zu verbessern
die Belastbarkeit im Alltag zu erhöhen

Geeignet sind vor allem kontrollierte Kraftübungen, Stabilisationstraining und bewusste Bewegungsführung. Einseitige oder unkontrollierte Belastungen sollten vermieden werden.
Alltag, Haltung & langfristige Perspektive
Neben dem Training spielt der Alltag eine entscheidende Rolle. Langes Sitzen, einseitige Haltungen oder fehlende Bewegung können bestehende Ungleichgewichte verstärken.
Ein aktiver Lebensstil mit regelmäßiger Bewegung, gezieltem Training und bewusster Haltung kann helfen, die Wirbelsäule langfristig zu unterstützen. Skoliose bedeutet nicht Stillstand – sondern erfordert einen durchdachten, individuellen Umgang mit Bewegung.
