I have a couple of comments to your above post that I just made in your earlier thread.
also, regarding ulcers
2005 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for establishing that bacteria cause stomach ulcers ..... The pair’s claims provoked a fierce backlash from the medical establishment, which held to the dogma that ulcers were brought on by stress and lifestyle, and could not be cured.
and last years Nobel Prize went to
Harald zur Hausen went against current dogma and postulated that oncogenic human papilloma virus (HPV) caused cervical cancer, the second most common cancer among women.
My question (and I am serious) are all the claims made by folks here about bracing adults Dogma or is there scientific proof that it DOES NOT work.
It seems that there is a belief here (almost like a religion) that anything short of surgery is not going to help scoliosis. I would imagine a statement like
would be difficult to prove. I'm not saying it is incorrect. It just sounds a bit like dogma/faith.
and as Sharon likes to say
And I did see Linda's link about why bracing an adult will not work. I guess I would classify that as evidence that it will not work. Not proof.
Is there more evidence out there (other than a lack of evidence)?
How would you go about proving this assertion?
or is it just faith?

there is no way ANY brace will correct a curve in a skeletally mature adult. It's impossible. In-brace corrections are not permanent.

faith is merely a way of pretending to know
