This invention relates to a three-dimensional scoliosis support system capable of providing pain relief and improvement of the spinal balance in scoliosis patients with different curve types. The disclosed bracing system is a tension-based scoliosis orthosis that comprises an rigid back panel. The three de-rotational supports pads of the back panel are connected to each other, providing facilitation or restriction of certain movements of human spine in the three different anatomical planes, i.e., coronal, sagittal and transverse planes. This scoliosis brace includes inelastic straps connected to the de-rotational supports/pads of the back panel, and the bracing system has different sizes and it can be fitted and adjusted accordingly with scoliosis curve type and patient characteristics.

Methods, systems, and apparatus regarding a Rotation & Abduction Device ('RAD') for shoulder immobilization in treating shoulder instability, wherein the ability to maintain particular degrees of shoulder rotation and abduction is desired or necessary. An exemplary RAD shoulder immobilization system may include: a frame; a harness connected to the frame and including a waist support and a neck/shoulder strap; a sling connected to the frame and the harness; and a lining covering parts of the frame, the harness, and/or the sling. A method of treating a shoulder disorder may include: providing a shoulder immobilization system capable of shoulder rotation positioning adjustment and capable of shoulder abduction-adduction positioning adjustment; putting the shoulder immobilization system on a wearer; adjusting the shoulder immobilization system for shoulder rotation positioning; and adjusting the shoulder immobilization system for shoulder abduction-adduction positioning. Numerous other aspects are provided.
