There are many different treatment methods for scoliosis, but one of the most popular is bracing. I wear a Boston brace, which has been successful in correcting my curve. I use this brace because it is what my doctor recommended when I was first diagnosed. Doctors are, in my opinion, the best resource when it comes to deciding on a brace. But if you want to have a look at other options, here are my top picks for helpful brace websites. Spine Health Spine Health discusses the different types of braces and their purposes. This is the perfect article for anyone who is trying to learn about the best brace for their curve. Ortho Info Ortho Info is a great website to learn the basics about bracing. It answers general, common questions about bracing and is an overall great resource for scoliosis patients that want to learn more about bracing. CHOC CHOC is my favorite resource to learn about bracing. I used this website a few months ago, when my curve was getting worse and I wanted to see if I should change braces or pursue some other treatment for my scoliosis. The website is a very reliable source, and explains the process of gradually starting to wear the brace, as well as caring for the brace.
