By Daily Mail Reporter. Rebecca Berry, who suffered from a curved spine for more than ten years has claimed that her condition was cured in just four weeks A woman who suffered from a curved spine so bad that she hid under baggy clothes for more than a decade, has claimed that her condition was cured in just four weeks - by yoga. Rebecca Berry, 29, planned to travel the world after finishing education indulging her love of scuba diving. But she was struck down by a crippling back condition in her late teens. By the time she went to university she had been diagnosed with scoliosis - curvature of the spine. For nearly a decade she wore clothes more than four sizes too big as she became embarrassed and ashamed about her deformity. She refused surgery that would leave her unable to walk for nearly six months and instead researched her condition online. Ms Berry, from Downham Market, Norfolk, got in touch with experts at the Scoliosis SOS clinic and was stunned to find an exercise programme that seemed to cure her condition.
