How Can Poor Posture In A Child Be Fixed?

My 14 yo son is growing fast, but has very poor posture, shoulders curve forward, hips slip forward. Scoliosis in my family. I remind him to keep his shoulders back and he straightens right up, but doesn t hold such pose. Suggest a posture strap/support for shoulders? Opinions of the Grommet posture brace?

Hi,

You can use posture braces but before all that why not try physiotherapy . it's the best for posture maintenance exercises.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
