Forme® For Scoliosis

Scoliosis is a sideways curve of the spine, and the most common spinal deformity.

Your spine curves towards one side of your body, often creating a C or S shape, and a humpback appearance when viewed from the back. It can be mild for some, but can get more severe over time and can be extremely painful and disabling.

It is usually diagnosed during puberty, but can occur at all age groups. In the US there are more than 3 million cases per year.

What are the symptoms of scoliosis?

Symptoms of scoliosis can vary greatly from case to case, but symptoms usually include a visible difference in unequal shoulder and hip height, humpback, wry neck, twisted rib cage, shortness of breath, and pain.

What causes scoliosis?

There are many different types of scoliosis, each with a variety of causes. About 80%of all pediatric scoliosis cases are idiopathic, meaning there is actually no known cause. Other types include degenerative, congenital, and neuromuscular scoliosis.

How can Forme® help with scoliosis?

Under a physician’s recommendations, Forme’s posture wearables can improve your appearance and performance in many ways. While we cannot make any condition-specific claims, we've had great feedback from a large number of customers, physicians, and professional athletes with regards to scoliosis.

Forme’s upper body wearables (bra and tees) improve appearance and balance shoulders, increase thoracic mobility and reduce pain, while elevating your daily activities. Forme’s lower body wearables (shorts, leggings) improve hip and lower back appearance, mobility and reduce pain. The patented technology built into Forme’s sensory-free wearables is designed to engage muscle memory to pull back and balance the shoulders, balance the hips, reduce back pain, and even eliminate or reduce any daytime or nighttime brace usage. Furthermore, Forme® improves your chest expansion through posture correction, which can reduce lung compression — a key benefit for individuals with scoliosis.

What people are saying

"Fantastic bra and tee for posture and scoliosis. I can actually see a difference in my daughter's back when she wears Forme. It's so wonderful to have a comfortable medical garment she can wear everyday and when doing sports to support her through the challenge of scoliosis. Thank you!"

Beth G.

"I thought this would be a good workout bra, but I wear it almost everyday now. I have scoliosis and it completely helps fix my hunch! I highly recommend this to everyone. The first two days you will feel muscle fatigue, but after that it's amazing."

Kamilla F.

"I have mild thoracic scoliosis, which causes more hunchbacks in my putting and golf stance. I have tried many golf trainers, but none have helped my spine deformity. I have used Forme for two months now and it has become a part of my golf equipment and golf wear. I don't wake up with neck stiffness, and my hunchback has gradually improved. My putting has also improved from using Forme as a trainer."

"As a scoliosis patient who also has to sit in front of a computer for 12+ hours a day, I suffer from consistent back, shoulder and neck pain. The Core Tee helps with alignment and posture, and I can see and feel an immediate difference. Interesting science and really great material to boot!"

Whan L.

"I bought my husband one, and now he wears it daily under his scrubs. He has scoliosis and had rotator cuff repair years ago, and he is pain-free from his back while he has them on. Excellent product!"

Susan G.

“I had a long history of scoliosis as an athlete and golf media executive. I started wearing a Forme tee and bra in November 2021, and I could feel the difference immediately. I was standing straighter, and like the hot air out of a balloon, the tension started coming out of my shoulder and neck area. When your body has been in the wrong position for so long, Forme is the only way to re-train your alignment. Two months later, I had a re-exam and my x-rays showed a marked improvement. I felt better and experienced a couple of months where I literally felt the best I had in about 20 years. Forme has helped me so much and I am so thankful for the ability to retrain my body.”
