Ahead of the Curve, The Scoliosis Experience
Episode 118: Rewiring the Brain-Body Connection for Scoliosis Care w/ Missy Bunch
11 May 2025
In this episode of Ahead of the Curve, I’m joined by Missy Bunch, founder of Movement IQ, as we explore the powerful role of the nervous system in scoliosis care. Missy shares her journey from professional dancer to applied neurology educator after a serious injury shifted her focus to brain-based movement and pain science.We discuss how the visual and vestibular systems influence posture, stability, and body awareness—and how targeted exercises can help reduce pain and improve quality of life for those with scoliosis and other spinal conditions. Missy also talks about identity, the emotional impact of diagnosis, and why empowering the brain can lead to real, lasting change in the body.This conversation is packed with practical insights for both individuals living with spinal conditions and the movement professionals who support them.Resources mentioned:Missy's WebsiteMissy’s InstagramSchedule a Discovery Call w/ MeghanMy Virtual Scoliosis Coaching ServicesMy WebsiteFREE At-Home Exercises For Scoliosis
