Case Studies 18 Spinal Correction Clothing

The brillance of this brace lies in the dynamic design of that although it moves with the body while still applying corrective forces three dimensionally to the body where they are needed while still allowing the patient freedom of movement.  The dynamic brace consists of corrective and adjustable elastic bands which are interconnected to three static components that create a modular system. This allows physicians to customize treatment and it can be worn beneath the patients clothing.
Unlike traditional, cast like, rigid braces, SpineCor allows for the patient to be treated without interfering with or preventing their normal daily activities. This innovative approach also allows the patient to participate in a dynamic range of activities, like Schroth exercises and active release therapy, that also work to correct the curvatures.

The elastic bands provide moderate tension that allows for repetitive amplification of the corrective movement as the patient undertakes everyday activities. This results in a progressive curve reduction.

Compared to rigid bracing, SpineCor also improves the quality of of a patient’s social life. Since it can be comfortably worn and hidden under cloths it allows a patient to discretely treat their scoliosis while being able to work and play without being obtrusive or embarrassing.
