Why use the S3 Spine and Scapula Stabilizing Brace?

The AlignMed S3 places the scapula in the ideal position for shoulder function by providing proprioceptive and kinesthetic cues by applying pressure on the inferomedial corner of the bone and on the pec major musculotendinous junction.

It is ideal for patients with:

- Postural dysfunction with protracted scapulae (rounded shoulders) and forward head position. This would include people who sit at computers, assembly line workers, surgeons, etc.
- Scapular dyskinesis – both proximally and distally based.
- Long thoracic mononeuropathy.
- Lower trapezius and/or serratus anterior weakness.

"The S3 System optimizes the position of the scapula to enhance the tone of the scapular stabilizing muscles. It simultaneously stretches the tight anterior structures to correct postural alignment and helps resore normal shoulder kinematics."
