 There are many different spine conditions common in adults. Some of them are developed by unhealthy postures, while others have origins in our genetic inheritance.
Scoliosis is specific because scientists are not sure what causes such a condition. The common belief is genetic inheritance, yet it tends to appear on patients without any prior scoliosis history in their family line. A few things can be done to treat scoliosis – one of them is using a orthosis known as scoliosis braces. Below, we're going to discuss a bit more about the types of scoliosis braces, which type might fit your needs, and how the results differ from scoliosis treatment exercises.
