Scoliosis Brace Side Effect
Full-time (20 hr per day) scoliosis bracing is an external treatment that needs to be limited to a very narrow range of scoliosis cases.
Scoliosis bracing only stop scoliosis to get worse, but doesn't improve or correct it. Its design is to hold the body (bones, muscles) together, but doesn't address its root cause, yet introduces more issues as patient remove.
Fundamentally, our body's bone and muscles reacts to our environment's stimulation. A serious issue with bracing is that bones & muscles cannot grow properly without intermittent pressure, as it is blocking it. The theory behind bracing is that it will open the inside of the curve (the concavity) by removing pressure, and encourage growth on the concave side of the curve (the convexity). But you need intermittent pressure on bones & muscles to stimulate growth, and the concavity needs to grow. You cannot "guide" bone growth by squeezing the ribs and bending them laterally while the wearer sleeps or sits. Muscle growth is slow down due to the brace is blocking it from various stimulation. Limited body movement introduced by brace prevents bones and muscle growth as well.
The brace relies on external pressure and support, yet introduces side effects below:

The brace relies on external pressure and support, yet introduces side effects below:
- Introduces pain that doesn't exists before
- Breathing problem due to pressure to lung and related organ & muscles
- Weaken muscles and leads to more serious scoliosis after brace removed
- Interface of children's body development (before ~ 20 year old)
- Indirectly causing scoliosis to rapidly worsen after removed the brace
- Extra stress on the rib cage, shoulder, pelvis and leads to children's body development issues
- Continuous replacement of scoliosis brace as children grow taller
- Develops sacroiliitis issue that causes pain in your buttocks or lower back, (potentially extends down one or both legs). Prolonged standing or stair climbing can worsen the pain.
- Hidden cost of chiropractor rehabilitation, multiple doctor checks, extra consultation due to above side effects
Sustainable Scoliosis Treatment
Scoliosis often is a length, mentally stressful, uncomfortable, costly, and not addressing its root cause. Many professional lost their focus and interest of patient that they want the it cured or improved instead of controlling it. Cost control is always not in their interest, which impose on patients and families. To us, surgery is only consider the last treatment, and highly not recommended, if preventable.
Scoliosis treatment must consider multiple areas, mainly focus to treat it, instead of control it. Many doctors and chiropractors do not provide 360 treatment, and often address it in narrow view. Our Scoliosis exercise program considers following:
Our scoliosis exercise treatment creates a "stimulus" — or new message — that helps the brain recognize something is going wrong! The brain will then "reflexively respond" to correct spinal alignment automatically. Exercises need to stimulate this involuntary reaction, and only specialized exercises can accomplish this by experience instructor.

- Total cost of the treatment
- Effectiveness of each treatment
- Evaluate the most suitable treatment based on individual's situation
- Quantify the risk and benefit for each, including their side effects
- Long term effectiveness and cost
- Patients' mental health, e.g. emotion, mood, expectation, social pressure
- Address the root that leads to scoliosis to treat, control, and managed it
- Diet adjustment
- Posture correction
- Effective scoliosis exercise that proven to work, adjust to each situation, by experienced senior instructor
- Financial situation
