A posture brace helps your spine to stay straight. It helps to relieve back pain by unloading pressure on the injured back. Typically, this spinal back brace covers the full spine, or a big part of it. It should be worn by persons who are suffering from a back pain that is out of reach of a regular lumbar back brace. Per example, a herniated disc or other back injury that is located within the Thoracic vertebrae zone. Other uses of a posture brace for full spine are: women with Osteoporosis, or persons with degenerative back diseases.
A back brace for Osteoporosis or other back diseases is a non medical solution to alleviate back pain and to support the full back. Patients with chronic back pain should follow their doctor's recommendation.
