Can scoliosis be fixed with a brace over time?
3 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
No: Scoliosis cannot be fixed with a brace. Bracing helps to avoid further worsening of the curvature. For example, if your curve is 30 degrees at age 14, bracing can help it from getting worse. It cannot make your curve back to normal.
