Abstract
Adult patients with scoliosis are offered little hope for rehabilitation and pain relief by health care professionals. Long term use of AINS and pain medication has proven harmful; rigid bracing is only rarely used due to its often disappointing results; surgery is only reserved for the most serious cases and mainly to preserve vital functions. Conservative management has also had poor outcome often due to long-term patient compliance. Long-term treatment of Adult Scoliosis with The SpineCor Pain Relief Back Brace deserves more attention. SpineCor offers a wide variety of combinations to improve posture. Its primary therapeutic goal is the relief of pain while reducing the mechanical strain on the neuromusculoskeletal system, which would only with time, aggravate of the condition. The brace acts as a dynamic support to offload the spinal joints, therefore protecting the misaligned spine from the compressive forces of gravity, while the resistive elastic bands reinforce the core musculature to an overall better postural alignment.

All suffered enough chronic back pain to seek treatment and were fitted with a SpineCor Pain Relief Back Brace according to the SpineCor® Protocol
The brace had no significant effect on reducing the pathological curvature of the spine, as would be expected in mature skeletons, it was subjectively noticed both by the evaluator and the patient themselves that they had a better overall postural alignment while they were wearing their brace
