I've had this a lot whenever I've been hospitalized. Because of my
scoliosis, my very peculiar body shape, and my fusion, it wasn't as effective
as with other patients (according to the PTs who worked with me). I'm very
limited as to how I can turn or move my body. It did help some though, but
to tell you the truth I really dreaded those sessions!
