These braces are often difficult to use, have poor compliance, rely on compression of the spine and do not reduce spinal curves.\u00a0 In addition, the quality and effectiveness of such braces is entirely dependent on the skill of the orthotist (the person who makes the brace).\u00a0 This is because the orthotist makes a plaster cast of the patient and then must create the brace off the cast of the person\u2019s distorted posture.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Scoliosis bracing has been around for decades.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Traditional braces are designed only to hold the curves in place rather than reduce or correct them.<\/li>\n<li aria-level=\"1\">Results of traditional bracing are mixed and quality of brace products is highly variable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Bracing has been shown to prevent progression of scoliosis.\u00a0 Traditional braces were a step in the right direction, but their effectiveness was limited by the lack of a formula to actually reduce curves and poor quality control standards.\u00a0 At ScoliTech we provide a state-of-the-art brace called <a href=\"\/treatment\/scolibrace\/\">ScoliBrace<\/a>.

At that time, she was 13 years old and had a 23 degree curve in her lower back. We prescribed, and she dutifully wore, a ScoliBrace for the next 3 years. In the picture on the right is her most recent x-ray. She is now 16 years old, is skeletally mature, and her curve measures 15 degrees. She is now able to begin weaning off the brace and is thrilled with her results. At the beginning of her care, her probability of the curve getting worse was approximately 45%.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][\/vc_section][vc_row full_width=&#8221;stretch_row&#8221;][vc_column]<div class=\"cz_gap clr  hide_on_tablet hide_on_mobile\" style=\"height: 140px\"><\/div><div class=\"cz_gap show_on_tablet clr \" style=\"height: 80px\"><\/div><div class=\"cz_eqh cz_content_box_parent_fx fx_bob \"><div id=\"cz_40278\" class=\"cz_40278 cz_content_box clr wpb_animate_when_almost_visible bottom-to-top\"><div class=\"cz_box_front clr\"><div class=\"cz_box_front_inner clr \"><span><\/span><div>[vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-9 vc_col-md-12 vc_col-xs-12&#8243;]<div id=\"cz_85544\" class=\"cz_85544 cz_title clr cz_smart_fs cz_title_has_icon cz_title_pos_inline\"><div class=\"cz_title_content\"><i class=\"cz_title_icon_before fa fa-check\"><\/i><div class=\"cz_wpe_content\"><h3><span style=\"font-size: 32px;\">Correct the Curve<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"color: #d4d4d4;\">Call <a style=\"color: #97cc3c;\" href=\"tel:+19522590304\">952-259-0304<\/a> or click to get a FREE scoliosis consult &amp; exam!<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner offset=&#8221;vc_col-lg-3 vc_col-md-12 vc_col-xs-12&#8243;]<div class=\"cz_btn_center\"><div class=\"cz_38331_p\"><a id=\"cz_38331\" class=\"cz_38331 cz_btn cz_btn_txt_no_fx cz_btn_no_fx\" href=\"\/free-consultation-request\/\" title=\"Free Consultation Request in Edina MN\" aria-label=\"Free Consultation Request in Edina MN\"><span><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\"><\/i><strong>Schedule Consult Now!<\/strong><\/span><b class=\"cz_btn_onhover\"><i class=\"fa fa-angle-right\"><\/i><strong>Schedule Consult Now!<\/strong><\/b><\/a><\/div><\/div>[\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner]<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"cz_gap clr  hide_on_tablet hide_on_mobile\" style=\"height: 110px\"><\/div><div class=\"cz_gap show_on_tablet clr  show_only_tablet\" style=\"height: 40px\"><\/div><div class=\"cz_gap show_on_mobile clr\" style=\"height: 20px\"><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_section][vc_row][vc_column][vc_video link=&#8221;https:\/\/youtu.be\/wt7EQM1QW1M&#8221;][vc_column_text]When scoliosis curves get larger, are painful and\/or are at &#8230; <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"parent":2117,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2558"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2558"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2558\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3104,"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2558\/revisions\/3104"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/2117"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/scolitech.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2558"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
