Kyphosis Exercise Treatment

Is there any treatment for kyphosis (round back)? Is posture brace and exercise useful?

I am 32 years old .I have kyphosis( 66 degree curve)

Since you're done growing, bracing probably won't work. (At least it wouldn't if you had scoliosis, but kyphosis is a cousin so I'm guessing that there's some common ground.)

If you're not in pain, I wouldn't worry about correction unless your curve is getting worse. If you are in pain, you have exercise (to reduce pain by strengthening your core muscles), pain management, and surgery (but only if your curve gets worse).

The person to ask should be a scoliosis (kyphosis) specialist. These guys understand our problem better than someone without the "specialty". I'd suggest having your family doctor give you a referral if you're not seeing a specialist already.
