Trial: evaluation of an innovative body-mapping tank top equipped with biofeedback system for adolescents with early scoliosis

A body-mapping tank top equipped with a biofeedback system was developed. The tank top can be used to progressively provide muscle training to patients with spinal deformities so as to restore a balance in muscle activity and a reduction in the displacement of both sides of the spine. The sensor-based biofeedback tank top can motivate patients to play active roles, thus improving movement control and coordination, as well as daily posture.
