June is National Scoliosis Awareness Month, a time to shine a light on the millions of individuals living with spinal curvature and chronic back discomfort. At Grapplers Inc., we believe in empowering every person—regardless of physical limitations—to live with greater comfort, confidence, and independence. That’s why our lineup of back-friendly reach tools is an ideal match for anyone managing scoliosis or back-related challenges.
Understanding Scoliosis & The Need For Supportive Tools
Scoliosis affects the spine’s alignment, often causing pain, limited mobility, and difficulty with daily tasks that require bending or reaching. Even simple chores, like picking up dropped items or grabbing something from a high shelf, can become difficult or even risky.
Scoliosis affects an estimated 6 to 9 million people in the United States, or approximately 2–3% of the population. It can develop at any age, though it most commonly begins during adolescence and can persist or worsen into adulthood depending on the severity and care taken.
Why Ergonomic Tools Matter
Ergonomic, lightweight tools like ours can:
- Minimize the need for bending and twisting
- Reduce strain on the spine and joints
- Offer independence with daily tasks
- Promote safer movement for people with back pain or limited flexibility
