Boston Brace

The Boston Scoliosis Brace is accepted worldwide as the proven system  for the non-operative treatment of idiopathic scoliosis. The Boston Scoliosis Brace is currently used as the primary orthotic solution at some of the worlds foremost pediatric medical centers, including Children's Hospital of Boston and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia.

Thoraco-Lumbar Brace

While standard sizing is available and used by many, orthoses made custom to measurements, cast, or by CAD through our advanced central fabrication facility, provide an intimate fit with the highest degree of accuracy for each and every patient. The technicians at Boston Brace have trained and worked with top physicians, orthotists, and therapists to learn the most advanced modifications and techniques necessary to provide full fabrication and support to scoliosis management experts in the field of orthotics. Our full fabrication includes the blueprinting and finishing of each orthosis to the patient's most recent x-rays and provides follow up evaluation of in-brace x-rays for adjustments and subsequent orthoses. As the leading educator for the advanced treatment of scoliosis, Boston Brace makes its clinical, educational, and technical experts available for consultation, review, and troubleshooting of any patient specific cases that need additional support. 
To ensure that the most proven and advanced techniques are being incorporated into your scoliosis treatment plan, ask that Boston Brace be there to support you. 
Original Boston Scoliosis braces can be identified by a stamped impression in the abdominal region of each orthosis.
