Scoliosis Brace

Do you or does someone you love have scoliosis? Have you struggled to find a treatment method that you feel good about and that has a good chance of relieving pain and keeping the patient out of surgery? At Denver South, we see cases of idiopathic scoliosis frequently, and we offer treatment for many both adult scoliosis and scoliosis in children with the ScoliBrace.

Scoliosis is a complex disease that affects more than just the spine. Spinal curvature can have an impact on the entire body and cause numerous problems for patients. Bracing with the ScoliBrace is a type of treatment that can correct spinal curvature without the need for invasive surgery.

Before you are fitted with a ScoliBrace, a thorough BraceScan is performed. The BraceScan uses 3D laser technology to scan your entire body, not just your spine. That’s because scoliosis is a three-dimensional disease – not one that just exists on one plane. We combine the results of the scan with photos of your spine and X-rays to design a brace that is unique to you. Each ScoliBrace is special because each case of scoliosis is unique.

The ScoliBrace is a scoliosis treatment that can help in several ways. By bracing the spine, it may reduce curves in certain types of scoliosis cases. You can talk to your doctor about whether your case fits within those categories. Scoliosis can hurt, and this brace is designed to reduce pain in both adult scoliosis and juvenile scoliosis. It can also improve posture, which can keep other areas of the body from being under- or over-developed, based on the particulars of your case of scoliosis.

A ScoliBrace may also help improve your overall appearance in addition to slowing curve progression and correcting your spinal curvature. Many people who suffer from scoliosis, especially kids, are self-conscious because the condition makes their waist asymmetrical, humps a rib, or throws their shoulders out of level. The ScoliBrace can make all of this better and make you or a loved one feel more confident.

We will meet with you and assess your case of scoliosis and determine whether this type of brace is well-suited to your needs.

When your brace comes it, it’s time to get it fitted. You may have elastic pieces, Velcro closures, or other types of toggles and fittings.
