Grant Wood, MS, CPO is the co-founder of Align Clinic in San Mateo, California and has over 25 years of experience in the areas of prosthetic and orthotic patient care, management, product development, and scientific research. In addition to being an active presenter, researcher, and winner of awards in prosthetics and orthotics, he is also a specialist in scoliosis bracing with the Cheneau brace and the Rigo-Cheneau braces; he has the unique qualification of having trained and mentored with Dr. Rigo and Dr. Cheneau since 1995. Since then, Mr. Wood has worked on numerous research publications, studies and workshops on the Cheneau and Cheneau Rigo braces, and he has gone on to create his own brace type: the WCR Brace®.
Mr. Wood created a brace for me in November 2016 and another in June 2018; I continue to wear my WCR Brace today. I had the privilege of interviewing him about both scoliosis in general and about the WCR Brace.
I would like to thank Grant Wood for giving me the gifts of his time, knowledge, and experience. I hope this information can help you in your search for an effective treatment that is best suited for you. See you soon for another blog post!
