Scoliosis Living: Trying something new

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2015/03/trying-something-new.html

Monday, March 16, 2015. Many people have offered welcome, and sometimes unwelcome, advice and suggestions about scoliosis over the course of our experience with it. Some are based on real life experiences, others based on hearsay, or "a friend of a friend.". It has reminded me of when I was pregnant - everyone had an opinion or story to share! Some were helpful, others. not so much! Dancer Girl already has a strong core - she's a dancer after all! An initial interview is where we will begin and we figure...

Scoliosis Living: Emotional Day!

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2015/03/emotional-day.html

Thursday, March 5, 2015. It has been a while since we posted anything. Mostly because things were sort of coasting along as far as the scoliosis and the brace, but also because we have been buried under snow and our routine has been challenged time after time with snow days and rescheduling! Recently though, Dancer Girl had been complaining of her brace not fitting correctly and things just not feeling right. We made an appointment to hopefully get things adjusted to relieve the discomfort. When we got h...

Scoliosis Living: Sleeping in a Boston Brace

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2014/04/sleeping-in-boston-brace.html

Wednesday, April 16, 2014. Sleeping in a Boston Brace. Sleeping in the Boston brace has proven to be harder for Dancer Girl than we anticipated. We certainly expected it to take some time to adjust, considering the brace is made of hard, inflexible material. But, so many posts from other users indicated that they got used to it fairly quickly. Within days and weeks) so we thought it would go that way for us as well. She started wearing it a bit loosely at night. This allowed for some movement to find a m...

Scoliosis Living: Sometimes you just have to dance

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2015/04/sometimes-you-just-have-to-dance.html

Monday, April 20, 2015. Sometimes you just have to dance. Spring has finally arrived in New England after a colder than usual winter. Well, today it is cold, wet, and windy (sigh) but for the past week it has really been quite nice. Yesterday Dancer Girl and her sister just had to take the opportunity to dance outside. We had an impromptu photo shoot of sorts and it was such fun to see them enjoying themselves. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). RETURN TO HOME PAGE. EN POINTE WITH SCOLIOSIS. Tops over t...

Scoliosis Living: Under the brace, for boys...

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2015/01/under-brace-for-boys-teens.html

Thursday, January 1, 2015. Under the brace, for boys. Someone asked a question on one of our posts about what to do about clothes for boys in a brace since most of the information found online is for girls. Great question. She was specifically asking about what to wear under the brace. I suggested looking for "seamless tops for boys" and stumbled across a few ideas that I thought I would post for others who may be struggling with this as well. Look for .seamless or minimal side seams. My 13 year old son ...

Scoliosis Living: Life post-brace

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2015/08/life-post-brace.html

Tuesday, August 4, 2015. He basically said she is done with seeing him regularly. We thanked him and told him that we hoped to never see him again (nothing personal - he's a great guy)! He totally understood the sentiment. :). Dancer Girl still has to deal with some back pain, although it is much less frequent and less painful than before bracing. Yay! She can select from a variety of ones but has to do some every day. We are so thankful to everyone who helped Dancer Girl through her brace-wearing days&#...

Scoliosis Living: Decorating the brace

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2014/04/decorating-brace.html

Thursday, April 10, 2014. Dancer Girl opted to get a plain, neutral colored Boston brace with the idea that she would decorate it herself. She didn't want anything too bright or something she would end up not liking a few months down the road. We had heard that decorating them is tricky because of the plastic surface but it also meant that nothing was permanent so you could redecorate it over and over as your mood dictated. This was actually a good thing for Dancer Girl. Dancer Girl tried some that were ...

Scoliosis Living: Can I Still Dance?

http://scoliosisliving.blogspot.com/2014/03/can-i-still-dance.html

Saturday, March 15, 2014. Can I Still Dance? This was one of the first questions that came up when we found out Dancer Girl needed a Boston brace. Dance is what she loves doing most in the whole world. It is what brings her joy. Not being able to dance would have been devastating to her. The answer is " YES! You can still dance! Here is how it works for us. 1 She takes the brace off for dance classes. 2 There are no restrictions at this point on the styles and dance moves she can do. We know that if this...
