we prescribe
Customized bracing is prescribed upon full evaluation of your spine condition. There is only one phase of life which we will be able to treat and correct the spinal curve effectively with bracing. Timely intervention is critical. For Asian children, this golden period is usually between ages 10 and 14, solely dependent on an individual’s puberty.
