New Therapeutic Option to Scoliotic Curves
The SpineCor brace, provides a new therapeutic option to scoliotic curves between 15 and 50 degrees in the growing child. Spinecor scoliosis brace is a soft, cotton brace, that is more comfortable and cooler and since it encourages corrective movements, it allows normal participation in sports and ensures appropriate strengthening of muscles.
The brace works on two principles:
1. Overcorrecting the posture, to encourage strengthening of weak muscles and ligaments, and intervening at a proprioceptive (brain level) to encourage normalization of posture.
2. Changing the forces on the bony parts of the spine (vertebrae) to encourage catch up growth in children who still have immature and growing spines.
