Episode 120: Rebuilding Confidence & Strength After Scoliosis Surgery w/ Emily Hale

In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I’m joined by Emily Hale, founder of Curva, a UK-based platform supporting people with scoliosis and spinal fusions. Emily shares her powerful story of navigating post-surgical isolation, finding her strength again, and building an inclusive movement space for others like her.

You’ll hear us talk about the challenges of returning to sport after spinal fusion, the emotional impact of recovery setbacks, and why traditional movement methods often fall short for people with spinal curves. Emily also explains her passion for crunch-free core training and how she’s helping to rewrite the narrative around what’s possible after surgery.

You’ll also hear about Curva’s inspiring charity trek up Mount Snowdon with people who have scoliosis or spinal fusions, proving just how resilient and capable our bodies really are.

This conversation is a must-listen for anyone seeking post-op support, better movement options, or a deeper sense of connection within the scoliosis community!
