The simple strategies to reduce a forward spinal curvature pattern would be instruct the patient to wear a cervical collar with a high part under the chin. When they stand, if they are forward in the curve, they are in most cases forward sitting. So we would instruct them to wear the collar when the person sits. My dad invented the seat wedge that when people sit on it, we commonly get about a 40% improvement in the spine in a minute in time. And so the seat wedge helps to bring the mid-back curve that is forward, backward. And it helps to bring the neck that is forward, backward, closer to normal. So the simpler strategies are what works. So when it is simple, it works. And a collar works and a seat wedge works to reduce the former curvature exhaustion spinal pattern.
