Are back braces good for correcting bad posture?
I've seen back braces for sale on the net which are supposed to pull your shoulders back and help correct bad posture. Does anyone know if they work?

My sister worn one for 1 year and her doctor found no improvement wearing the brase. She is now doing back muscle strenghting exercises which seem to make her fell better and her posture is better.
