Scoliosis Awareness Month¹

At SpineCor we are passionate about the early detection of Scoliosis and recognise that the key to this lies within raising awareness and education within the general public and healthcare communities.

In order to help support Scoliosis Awareness Month, we will be contacting our global network of SpineCor Brace Providers during the month of June with the aim of raising their awareness of the campaign; we will also send them the landmark BrAIST² study (breakthrough research on bracing in scoliosis). We hope that this will empower SpineCor Brace Providers to run local awareness and educational campaigns within their neighbourhoods.

We are pleased that our professional educational programs are also continuing to raise awareness of Scoliosis and its detection through the teaching of basic science and the latest screening techniques.

Our ongoing commitment to advancing Scoliosis science drives our collaboration with other healthcare professional groups and support Scoliosis charities worldwide.

We are excited to support this campaign and will have the ‘Scoliosis Awareness Month’ banner across our home page for the month of June helping to promote this fabulous campaign to the thousands of monthly visitors to our website.
