SpineCor

The Dynamic Corrective Brace

Developed by two orthopaedic surgeons, Dr. Coillard and Dr. Rivard, this is the first brace of its kind! The brace is superior to other traditional braces by its comfort, movement ability while wearing the brace, its light-weight, ease of use (taking on/off), its discreetness (not seen under most clothing), and particularly its success (scientifically proven)!

In 2007, the Journal of Pediatric Orthopedics published the results of the SpineCor bracing protocol on hundreds of children.^1,2 The results demonstrated the SpineCor brace to provide correction or stabilization of scoliosis curvatures in the majority (89%) of the patients as well as 93% of the patients remained stable after being weaned off the brace 5 years later! The SpineCor brace was also superior as compared to two other back braces in preventing patients from progressing to need spinal surgery.³
