Early detection and treatment is of great importance in  children.  The  smaller  the  curve  is  when a child is braced,  the  better,  as  early detection often leads to greater results. The "lets wait and see what happens" attitude   is    not   recommended -   scoliosis   requires immediate    and   regular   attention.   During   growth spurts,  curves  can  progress  rapidly  making parents wish  they  had braced their child earlier. It is easier to change  the  direction  of  a  curve  that  is still growing than one that has stopped growing.

   The  SpineCor  brace  is  designed  to  allow  for total freedom of movement. This is especially important for children:  movement allows for proprioceptive input to the  brain ( the  input from nerves in your joints telling the  brain  where  a  part  of  your body is at any given time).   The    SpineCor    brace   also   allows   for   the strengthening   of   muscles   through  normal  activity, rather  than  a weakening, or atrophy, of muscles due to  lack  of  movement.  We  encourage  children fitted with  the  SpineCor  brace to participate in all activities while  wearing  the brace under clothing. And because it  is virtually undetectable, children are more prone to wear  it  as directed. This increases compliance results in greater changes.
