Certified ScoliBrace provider in Lake Nona

ScoliBrace is a custom 3D-designed scoliosis brace that corrects the spine in all three dimensions - not just side-to-side. It's designed using a scan of the patient's torso and manufactured specifically for their curve. We are a certified ScoliBrace provider in Lake Nona, one of very few in the Orlando area.

How the 3D scan and custom brace work

We use a specialized scanner to capture the patient's torso in three dimensions - no casting, no mess. The scan is sent to the ScoliBrace manufacturing facility, where each brace is designed and built specifically for the individual's curve pattern. The result is a brace that fits precisely and applies corrective forces in all three planes of the spine, not just side-to-side like a traditional brace.

How ScoliBrace works

ScoliBrace operates on a three-dimensional correction principle. It works by guiding the body and spine into a more natural position, helping to correct and manage scoliosis. The brace's design is sleek and discreet, allowing for ease of movement and day-to-day wear. It's suitable for patients of all ages, from children to adults, and is effective in treating various types of scoliosis, including idiopathic and neuromuscular conditions.

Who ScoliBrace is for

ScoliBrace is appropriate for children, adolescents, and adults. For growing teens, bracing is typically recommended when a curve is above 20 degrees and there is a risk of progression. For adults, bracing can help reduce pain, stabilize a curve, and in some cases improve posture and body appearance. Each brace is individualized to the patient's specific curve pattern, age, and goals.

What wearing it is actually like

ScoliBrace is typically worn 18-20 hours per day for optimal results, though the exact prescription depends on the curve severity, the patient's age, and the stage of treatment. We provide a clear wearing schedule and work with patients to make it practical for school, sports, and daily life. The brace is designed to be discreet under clothing, and most patients adjust to wearing it within the first few weeks. Regular check-ups allow us to monitor fit and effectiveness, and to adjust or replace the brace as the patient grows or the curve responds.
