[0047] Specifically, the belt body adjustment buckle 25 includes a clamping portion and a buckling portion;

[0048] There are two connecting belts 23, which are respectively connected to the first connecting seat 21 and the second connecting seat 22. The movable ends of the two connecting belts 23 are respectively wrapped around the clamping part and the buckling part. The positions of the clamping part and the buckling part on the connecting belt 23 can be freely adjusted as needed to adjust the effective length of the connecting belt 23 (the distance between the clamping part and the buckling part to the first connecting seat 21 or the second connecting seat 22).

[0049] It should be noted that the structure of the strap adjustment buckle 25 is completely the same as the adjustment buckle of the shoulder strap of a backpack in the prior art, and will not be described in detail here.

[0050] Furthermore, the scoliosis orthosis includes a plurality of strap units 2. In this embodiment, three strap units 2 are taken as an example for description. The three strap units 2 are sequentially arranged at intervals along the extending direction of the opening 15. Figure 1 , so as to better close the opening 15, so that the orthosis body 1 can better restrain the patient's scoliotic spine, so as to improve the orthopedic effect of the scoliosis orthosis.

[0051] It should be noted that the number of strap units 2 is not limited to three, and more may be provided. The specific number may be determined according to the length of the opening 15, mainly to better close the opening 15 so that the orthosis body 1 can better restrain the patient's scoliotic spine.

[0052] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the orthosis body 1 comprises a first pressing area 11, a back area 12, a second pressing area 13 and a front abdominal area 14, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 ;in,
