“How can I sleep with a scoliosis brace?”

Hello and thanks for sharing your scoliosis question with the FATD community. I am happy to share my thoughts, tips and suggestions with you regarding this question. Scoliosis braces are offering to the growing child/adolescent whose bones have yet to stop growing. During the night, the body rests but also grows. Therefore, even though it may be uncomfortable at first, wearing your brace at night is encouraged. From speaking to someone who wore a brace at night, they informed me that wearing a tank top or t-shirt under the brace during the night helped make the process less bothersome. I hope this helps. Wear it a lot since it is only for a period of time and can greatly help the curve and may stop or even reverse the progression (and allow you to be as tall as possible and also avoid pain and/or surgery.

Depends on the fit of the brace.Check with the brace orthotist
