Scolibrace®
ScoliBrace® is an evidence-based, non-surgical treatment for scoliosis in children, adolescents and adults. It is only available through certified ScoliBrace® Providers.
This unique bracing approach brings together the best technology, evidence-based techniques and experienced clinicians to get the best possible outcome for patients with scoliosis. No two braces are the same and your customized brace is as unique as your curve.
Rather than using a traditional mindset of trying to immobilize the spine through a brace, the ScoliBrace® approach genuinely attempts to individualize the correction and achieve an improved alignment of the spine and body posture in the brace.The brace’s over-corrective approach harnesses spinal coupling, not 3 point pressure, to create a better position of the three-dimensional posture of the body. In this position, the brace then works to retrain the neurological connection between the brain, joints and muscles to control the body posture so that the body adapts to a ‘new normal’, ideally a straighter position of the spine.
Scolibalance®:
Our Approach to Exercise
ScoliBalance® provides the patient with an individualised scoliosis specific exercise program based on their curve type and postural characteristics that also addresses any relevant functional weaknesses.
The patient is taught a scoliosis specific 3D posture correction (ScoliCorrection®) that positions their spine in the straightest possible alignment. They then learn specific ScoliExercises® with the aim of holding their ScoliCorrection® while performing the exercises. Patients learn this program in-clinic and practice at home between clinic appointments.As the patient becomes more familiar with the program, they are taught to integrate the ScoliCorrection® into their daily activities. This helps to subconsciously train the body to hold the ScoliCorrection® helping to reduce or stabilise the scoliosis curve.
