Scoliosis Treatment
If you have scoliosis, the SpineCor System™ used at Advanced Spine & Wellness Center, located in Rockville, Maryland, could be the perfect solution.Aninnovative new concept in the treatment of scoliosis, the SpineCor System™ consists of a soft, dynamic brace and rehabilitative movements. Traditional scoliosis braces use rigid structures to physically force the spine back into a more normal position. The SpineCor brace works differently – it doesn’t force the spine to move – instead, this system uses progressive correction.
The SpineCor, first developed in the 1990s,provides relief from muscular strain due to chronic postural changes, and it is also a good solution forchronic back pain. It facilitates accurate fitting, and treatment follow-up was a truly revolutionary concept in scoliosis treatment. Since then, treatment has progressed, but SpineCor is still considered ideal for many cases. In fact, it has proved to be successful in 89% of cases, either improving stabilization or angle of the spinal curve.
SpineCorTreatment for Scoliosis
Not only does SpineCor treatment allow four hours out of the brace and shows better aesthetic results, but it also:
• Is a treatment approach based on the latest understanding of the cause and progression factors of Idiopathic scoliosis.
• Allows for less movement restriction and is more easily concealed under clothing no side effects(rigid braces cause muscle atrophy and can hinder normal child development)
• Shows excellent treatment results, particularly when treatment is started early.
• Shows exceptional stability of treatment results post bracing.
• Offers neuromuscular integration for maintenance of improved posture.
• Lowers the chances you’ll need surgery.
SpineCor vs. Traditional Back Brace
SpineCor’s unique treatment approach offers improvement over traditional braces, which are essentially static or allow minimal movement, due to its true totally dynamic action. The SpineCor treatment approach is completely different to that of traditional braces that use 3-point pressure and distraction; it is the first and only true dynamic bracing system for idiopathic scoliosis.SpineCor’s unique approach to treatment by global postural re-education has been shown to give progressive correction over time which, unlike any previous brace treatment, is extremely stable post brace weaning.
Traditional braces are rigid and static by design; however, the SpineCor system uses a dynamic, flexible belting system that does not limit normal body movements. The patient is allowed – and encouraged – to do all normal daily activities; the postural muscles of the abdomen and spine will not become weak.
Benefits of SpineCor for Idiopathic Scoliosis Treatment
• Adults with scoliosis-related back pain have used SpineCor with good results with relief of back pain
• No side effects, whereas rigid braces cause muscle atrophy and can be harmful to normal development in a child
• Cooler to wear
• Better compliance and cosmetics
• SpineCor has excellent stability results after the brace is no longer worn
• Positive postural changes noted in cases where there's been no change in Cobb angle
