ADULT HYPERKYPHOSIS
Adults can be affected by all types of kyphosis described in section What is kyphosis?
The important thing to keep in mind is that adult kyphosis’ potential for aggravation is high, because the constant gravitational pull upon vertebrae is conducive to spinal collapse.
Treatment using the SpineCor® brace, which reduces the abnormal loading exerted on the joints by reinforcing the spine’s muscular support structure is therefore highly recommended.
