FIELD: medical engineering. SUBSTANCE: device has a frame having end cross beams and side members, flexible ribbons placed between the end cross beams, lumbar supporting member, rigid transverse ribs attached to the flexible ribbons with a slope running from the lumbar supporting member, units for changing curvature of the surface formed by the transverse rigid ribs. The device has board with cervical protrusion for head to be placed and a board for the crus mounted each on its base to enable springy movements to be carried out sidewise from the lumbar supporting member. The bases are mounted on the frame to enable their arrangement along the side members to be adjusted. The frame has central cross beam rigidly fixed on the side members. The lumbar supporting member is mounted on the central cross beam to enable its height to be adjustable. EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness of vertebral column correction in dynamic mode. 8 cl, 18 dwg
