Scoliosis Support Groups
ScoliConnect serves as an online community of peer support for individuals who are currently undergoing ScoliBrace and/or ScoliBalance treatment and their families. It provides a platform for people to connect, exchange experiences related to scoliosis and hyperkyphosis, and offer emotional support to each other. This private Facebook group is closely monitored by the dedicated staff of ScoliCare.
ScoliConnect is solely for peer support purposes, and medical advice is not permitted.
