SpineCor is more effective in stopping curve progression than the most commonly used scoliosis Brace treatment . It has shown to be over 70% more effective in preventing surgery than the Boston Brace. It is vastly more comfortable, allows freedom of movement, and is nearly invisible under clothing.The SpineCor brace works on a completely different principle to hard bracing. Rather than using brute force to try to straighten the spine, SpineCor uses a series of soft elastic bands to reverse the patient’s abnormal posture by using a “corrective movement“.
Unlike the Boston Brace, which weakens the muscles and stiffens the spine, the SpineCor Brace allows movement, keeps the spine flexible, and actually strengthens the supporting muscles of the spine.
SpineCor is a dynamic non-rigid brace, meaning it is flexible. This important feature leads to numerous benefits:
- preserves body movement and promotes corrective growth whilst continuing normal activities of daily living;
- can be discreetly worn beneath patient's clothing for optimum self-image;
- increases patient's acceptance for the treatment leading to optimal results;
- over long-term offers a cost-effective solution to patient;
- proven stability of treatment results after bracing discontinued, quite unlike rigid bracing;
- clinical observation shows significant postural improvements
- no side effects (muscular atrophy).
