DALLAS, TX, June 08, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Enovis™ Corporation (NYSE: ENOV), an innovation-driven medical technology company, today announced the launch of the DonJoy Spinamic® Hybrid Scoliosis Brace, to be distributed by its subsidiary, DJO, LLC. Supported by published clinical evidence demonstrating effectiveness in preventing curve progression in adolescent idiopathic scoliosis1(AIS), Spinamic rethinks traditional bracing by integrating dynamic support with structural control designed to provide in-brace correction while supporting improved wearability for children and teens with AIS.
A common spinal disorder in young people, AIS affects approximately 0.5% to 5% of adolescents worldwide.2,3 For decades, rigid bracing during skeletal growth has been the standard of care to prevent curve progression, but it often comes at a significant cost to the patient.4 Rigid braces may irritate skin, heighten stress, and lower self-esteem; for some adolescents, the psychological and physical burden leads them to stop wearing braces at all, preventing the overall clinical benefit.5 Flexible or "dynamic" braces offer improved comfort and mobility, but current evidence suggests they are less effective than well-designed rigid braces at controlling curve progression in AIS.6 Spinamic aims for the optimal balance of both approaches, with a hybrid design that integrates rigid corrective elements into a breathable mesh vest, using an adjustable three-point pressure system to maintain corrective forces while improving comfort and wearability, aiming to give adolescents a brace with which they can actually live.1
“By combining the corrective strength of a rigid brace with the flexibility and mobility of a dynamic solution, Spinamic helps eliminate the tradeoff scoliosis patients often face between effective treatment and maintaining their quality of life,” said Terry Ross, President of Enovis’ Prevention & Recovery business segment. “This launch reflects Enovis’ broader commitment to delivering innovative solutions that support patients across the full continuum of care and throughout every stage of their journey.”
Available in 10 sizes, Spinamic is not only designed for effectiveness, comfort, and patient compliance, but also for more streamlined patient visits and efficient clinical workflows. Adolescents can be fitted, have an in-brace X-ray taken, and receive any necessary adjustments, all in a single visit without the need to wait weeks for a brace to be made. Pressure regulators mounted to adjustable rail-type pressure plates may be positioned to align to the apex of most curve types, while an adjustable hump pad is placed at the base of the rib prominence to aid in derotation of the scoliotic curve as treatment progresses. The brace's cool air mesh fabric is breathable, hand-washable, and designed to be easy to put on, take off, and wear for extended periods.
Spinamic is now available in the United States. Enovis is pursuing regulatory clearance worldwide. For more information, click here.
