ABSTRACT:
A device for treating faulty positions and postures of the human torso by means of at least one lockable force storing mechanism inserted into strapping lying against the body and having a locking element so coupled with a strap mounting element displaceable relative to the casing of the storage mechanism and biased towards a starting position, of a tension strap transmitting postural changes of torso to the force storage mechanism that the strap mounting element in the period of time of the desired postural correction blocks the force storage mechanism when the tension strap is held substantially free of tension. At least one measuring strap or Bowden cable is connected to the strapping and to the force storage mechanism. This strap or Bowden cable upon the assumption of faulty posture of the torso releases the locking of the force storage mechanism whereby the tension strap is effectively tensed with intensified pull in the direction of the faulty posture and remains tense until, by a postural correction of the wearer acting against the spring tension of the force storage mechanism the locking element locks the strap mounting while the strap is again free of tension.
