The connection
I was born with scoliosis and have gone through both options on how to correct the spine. I wore a brace when I was toddler but it was not effective, because of this years later I had a spinal fusion surgery. Unfortunately that wasn’t very successful either, my scoliosis kept progressing to the point where I required a second spinal fusion surgery. From my own personal experiences I know how much people like myself need an application in which they can bond.

App Purpose
To provide an effective forum in which people with scoliosis can connect and feel comfortable doing so. The forums that are currently available for people with scoliosis only allow you to make posts there is no real interaction amongst people. Not everyone feels comfortable sharing their experiences in such a public way like that. ScolioSocial allows the costumer to have as much privacy as they seem fit. We also provide other services besides instant messaging, the app is a social media app but it has so much more to offer. The app would be sold to the Apple company and
