A non-harmful diagnostic tool for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of spinal imbalances.
For Pediatrics Specialists.
Postural imbalances, paramorphisms and dysmorphisms of the spine in children
For BHOHB, posture and proper musculoskeletal development are among the first factors that can affect a child's mental and physical well-being.
Many of the discomforts that afflict people in adulthood, such as back pain, neck pain, lower back pain, joint and muscle problems, are closely related to postural imbalances and can be found as early as developmental age.
To date, such imbalances and, more particularly paramorphisms and dysmorphisms of the spine, are investigated through diagnostic technology (X-rays) which, although effective and timely, makes use of harmful ionizing radiation.
Children, because of their greater radio-sensitivity than adults, are more susceptible to the risks associated with X-ray exposure.
With BHOHB, a pediatrician can:
- Assess the child's total body postural situation without making use of RX.
- Check for SCOLIOSIS, CIFOSIS and LORDOSIS in a timely and non-harmful manner, monitoring the treatments and/or pathways taken.
- Check the effects on the spine following the adoption of dental braces or prescription lenses.
- Determine the most suitable sport activity for a young person and monitor its impact to suggest, if necessary, a second activity for compensation and realignment.
- Improving sports performance and reducing injuries for competitive youths.
- Monitor the impact of the so-called Teck-Neck or Text-Neck, a condition that irretrievably afflicts the younger generation and is caused by the constant use of technologies such as Laptops and Smartphones.

BHOHB bridges the gap
Between Radiography and MRI
Postural screening, which can be performed with the BHOHB medical device, is within the framework of traditional diagnostic imaging, integrating, with innovative and non-invasive technology, the set of instruments most widely used in modern medical practice, such as radiography, MRI or computed tomography.
Holism, Prevention and Pediatrics
In recent years, Medicine, has increasingly moved toward a holistic view of the patient that does not just treat according to the more traditional methods but aspires to prevent disease and maintain the individual in a state of overall health and well-being.
On this path toward a better quality of life for individuals, prevention plays a key role that aspires to keep patients in a state of good health, reducing the burden and costs on the national health care system.
Within this address, the modern pediatrician aspires to assist his or her patients not only by virtue of an increasingly high level of specialization, capable of "delivering" an optimal clinical-care pathway, but also to assist traditional diagnostic methodologies through innovative, non-invasive and non-harmful technologies.
BHOHB and the clinical analysis of posture
BHOHB-certified medical devices, are the result of scientific and technological research that takes ministerial guidelines as a reference to provide different health professionals with the most suitable tools to carry out prevention, diagnosis and treatment of postural disorder.
BHOHB provides the pediatrician with a non-invasive, non-harmful postural and cervical screening technology that enables the specialist to apply the anamnestic and objective-clinical modalities necessary to evaluate and treat a patient with suspected postural dysfunction.
BHOHB provides pediatricians with a system that captures objective, measurable data and provides unambiguous guidance based on the latest scientific evidence.
Data from the BHOHB report
Each screening performed with BHOHB produces a comprehensive, detailed and objective report of the health status of a patient's spine, as well as a total body view, accompanied by a 3-D reconstruction of the spine.
The report is unique: it collects all the biometric measurements needed by medical specialists to make a diagnosis preparatory to embarking on a therapeutic course, a specialized in-depth study or, simply, a preventive activity toward numerous painful symptoms of patients.
