Entry Description

SpineUp is a low back brace designed for teenagers with mild to moderate Lenke 1 curved scoliosis. It is composed of a combination of soft and hard materials and is equipped with a modular mechanism to fine-tune the position of force application so as to respond to the rapid body shape changes during the growth period of adolescent users. Combined with gamified interactive physical therapy, which can be performed at home, it can improve the willingness of adolescents to treatment.
