BRACE APPLICATION The various components of your Peak Scoliosis Bracing System have been modified to create a customized fit designed to meet your specific needs. To ensure optimal results, do not alter the brace. Consult your clinician or your fitting professional should you have any questions or concerns about the placement of the pads or proper fit. - Page 7 Be sure to position each pad in it’s proper location. It is important that you apply the brace in the same position so that it feels the same as it did when you were initially fit. Inhale deeply and wrap the belt around as tightly as possible. Overlap the ends of the brace and press down firmly to secure.
- Page 8 To tighten the brace, grasp the pull tabs and pull them away from your body. Over tighten the brace, then loosen slightly to achieve a supportive but comfortable fit. Be aware that the right pull tab controls the upper compression and the left pull tab controls the lower compression.
- Page 9 Once the appropriate compression is obtained, place the pull tabs on the front panel of the brace, press down to secure. When seated, check that the brace is comfortable by confirming that the trochanter pad is not too low and that the thoracic pad is not uncomfortably high.

BRACE REMOvAL Be sure to remove the brace as instructed. Proper placement of the pull tabs and extension of the brace will help ensure that it is ready to apply the next time. To remove the brace, peel up the pull tabs and reattach them on either side of the brace as close to the back panel as possible to release the compression. - Page 11 Peel back the ends of the brace to open. Before removing entirely, be sure to fully extend the ends of the brace. This will adjust the brace so it is ready to apply the next time.
