This looks really good, I wish I had that as a kid, the way medical corsets were made up until circa 2005 was plastering your body, letting it dry, and using some kind of skin safe chainsaw to retrieve the mold to then print the plastic one-piece device

    Thirdly, it's a lot quicker to manufacture. "A conventional rigid brace takes more than two weeks to manufacture," VNTC points out, while "Spinamic can be immediately customized and delivered based on clinical X-ray data."

    Yeah that doesn't explain how long it takes to build this device.

    Looks like this brace could be a game changer for scoliosis patients, I hope it works out!

    Normal? She’d still be a bird even with a straight back. So no, not normal.
