[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have scoliosis and wore a Boston brace as a teen---my curvature is in the 25-30 degree range. There probably isn't much you can do to[b] correct curvature that's already present[/b], but I agree with everyone above who suggests that he focuses on core strength. I had a lot of issues with back pain as an adult that I believe was a result of my scoliosis and the after-effects of years of bracing. I started doing barre and pilates regularly about a decade ago, and that pain has completely resolved since.[/quote] Bracing corrects it as they grow (I mean OP's kid might have too small a curve to bother, IDK) but the braces definitely are evidence based.
