Skoliose-Info-Forum

Hab jetzt mal ne Seite gefunden, die Adult Bracing (Erwachsenen-Korsettversorgung) in den USA tatsächlich auch anbietet, wenn auch nur unter 'ferner liefen'.

http://lascoliosisbrace.com/why_la.php

Auch Schroth ist auf der Seite mehrmals explizit erwähnt.

Unter Anderem steht da:

• Adult L.A. Bracing System
  
  Adult’s with scoliosis have more stiffness and less “plasticity” and hence have greater issues with tolerance of the standard LA Brace forces. We have developed a 2-brace system specifically for the adult scoliosis population that works in conjunction with Schroth therapy as a unique program for the adult scoliosis patient.

PS: Ist es Euch heute auch so heiß unterm Korsett oder geht das nur mir so?

Und noch ein Artikel, in dem die Korsett-Versorgung für Erwachsene positiv behandelt wird:

Hier kann man u.A folgendes lesen:

• Non-operative treatment options
  
  ........
  
  For patients with severe pain, and evidence of instability the addition of a back brace may be very helpful. Bracing may help reduce motion across the spine and provide the sensation of increased support. Bracing does not eliminate the need for physical therapy, and exercises can often be performed while wearing the brace.
  
  Practical tips on living with a brace
  
  If your physician has recommended a brace you must understand that this is not an easy treatment method and does not replace the need for other treatments such as physical therapy. It is essential that you have a customized brace made which will fit your body shape. Everyone has a unique body shape, and particularly a patient with scoliosis will have a shape that requires detailed attention in the making of a brace.
  
  There are many types of braces and your physician will determine which is most suitable for you. Initially, any brace will seem awkward to wear and may even be quite uncomfortable. To give bracing a fair chance be patient and get used to wearing your brace in a gradual manner. It may be a good idea to start wearing the brace for only an hour at a time and then increasing this daily until after a week or so you can tolerate the brace for most of the day. During bathing and while in bed the brace can usually be removed, your physician will guide you in specific instructions.

while in bed the brace can usually be removed

Ist das amerikanischer Standard?

Es handelt sich hier ja im Wesentlichen um Schmerzkorsetts. Da ist es bei uns ja auch so. Ich trag mein Korsett auch hauptsächlich nur noch tags über.
