During Scoliosis Awareness Month, we want to raise awareness for scoliosis and support our scoliosis warriors. Supporting these kids needs to be relevant to them. This webinar is an absolute necessity if you are an MD, Physiotherapist, CPO or parent of a child with scoliosis, who wants to know the modern options available to support patients who need to wear a brace. Telling them to ‘just wear it’ is not enough!

"One of the hardest things for those diagnosed with scoliosis is being in a rigid scoliosis brace.  Most of the time, they feel alone, like they are the only one with scoliosis.  In this episode, Megan Glahn, who is a certified orthotist shares with us a way these kids can get connected with a mentor/friend who also has experience with bracing.  Being connected with someone who knows what you are going through is very powerful."

"Scoliosis Awareness and Support: How to Better Support Kids with Bracing presented by Megan Glahn and Lauren Higginson. We know that bracing compliance is one of the major factors that influences brace success in scoliosis conservative treatment. But getting a child or teen to wear their brace despite them knowing the consequences if they don’t, just isn’t that easy."
