Providence Courses Studies have shown that the Providence brace, a spinal orthosis worn only at night, is just as effective in the treatment of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis as full-time braces. That’s important, because compliance increases when braces don’t interfere with a child’s everyday life. The Providence is also effective for obese, juvenile and neuromuscular patients. By completing the Providence courses, practitioners will learn how to satisfactorily address the needs of these patients through review of scoliosis principles and use of innovative technology to improve fit and enhance comfort. 2010 June 24, 2010 Providence Scoliosis System – ½-day course St. Petersburg College August 13 - 14, 2010 SCOLIOSIS SYMPOSIUM Boston, MA Day One: Full-time Scoliosis Bracing Full-day course, 8 CEU Day Two: Providence Scoliosis System ½-day course, 4 CEU Contact Spinal Technology Inc. at 1-800-253-7868 for additional information.
