Use corrective corset necessary for the doctor's prescription. Especially if it concerns medical( corrective) adaptations.
Prophylactic samples from natural soft materials can be selected independently, given that their wearing is relevant only at the initial stages of stoop as a preventive measure. Such a corset will help support the spine in a normal anatomical position.
Before recommending a hard corset with plastic ribs, the doctor also takes measurements of the spine and musculature, according to which the wearing of this or that kind of corrective belt is assigned.
The essence of its use is that the rigid base "presses" on certain parts of the back and spine, thereby gradually returning it to its normal position.

When adjusting devices are used
Corrective corsets are used in cases of progressive scoliosis. The peculiarity of the apparatus lies in the fact that the support structures affect the back pressure on the deformation region. The most popular today is the corset Chenot, made of special thermoplastic plastic, which is manufactured exclusively by individual casts from gypsum.
On the opposite side of the deformation area, there are special free zones in which curvatures are projected.
Boston corset is a device designed to correct scoliosis of the third degree( sacral and lumbar region).The product is a frame with clasps( rear and front) for a complete fit on the body.

Rules for using
Corsets are worn in a standing position on the naked body or on a T-shirt( T-shirt) and fastened with belts in the waist area. It should be taken into account that the belts should not be twisted, sagged or over-tightened.
After the product has been worn, you should look at yourself in the mirror: the back should take a natural position( in the form of the Latin letter S), and the shoulders are slightly deployed back. In wearing the corrector there should be no breaks and the course can be from 3 to 6 months.
Reclaimer supporting
The first time the corrector is worn with a minimum belt tension. The degree of tension should be marked on the belts with a marker.
So, with regular wearing after 3-4 weeks the shoulders will be in the most natural position.
The next step is to get out of the product. It is impossible to refuse from it at once. You need to do this gradually: reduce the time of use to 1-2 hours a day, so that the muscles and osteoarticular system are used to the correct position.
In some cases, the corset can be worn for several years, especially if the person's work is associated with constant sitting or loads on the spine.
Is it really working or another "zamanuha"?
After examining the responses of ordinary people, one can draw conclusions whether the corset helps to get rid of stoop and problems with posture, or it's just a useless thing.
I have a sedentary job, so at the end of the day I often felt pain in my back. After the examination, I was diagnosed with scoliosis: the initial stage and attributed to wearing a reclinator.
I chose the Ortop model and did not fail. Wearing the corrector of the posture unloaded the back and gradually restored the natural position to the spine.

It was difficult to get used to wearing,as the daughter complexed, and the product itself rubbed, but the result was worth it.
