Chiropractic Mobilization will help. Do the cat/cow stretch. Get on all fours, with your arms straight and your hands directly under your shoulders; your knees hip-width apart.

It will make your muscles stiff further restricting movements . Posture correction should be done by active muscle work for which you will need guidance by a physiotherapist.
Next Steps
meet a nearby physiotherapist to get your condition assessed.

It depends on the shape of the brace! So it would be better if you consult near by physiotherapist or orthopaedic!

It's better that you don't go for the corrective belts as you need to find out the exact cause behind these problems and for this you can consult us online.

Not really, it doesn't work out that ways. You have to actively correct your posture. Consult with a physiotherapist who have orthopaedic experience.
