About the solution
When my daughter was 6, she was diagnosed with Scoliosis. Then, years later, when my son was 6, he was diagnosed with Scoliosis. When my daughter first went into a brace, we didn't know how we were going to make it work - it was a complicated brace, and it irritated her skin and didn't allow her to use the restroom in-brace. We were not even sure how to send her to school on Monday. So, I pulled out my sewing machine and came up with a workable solution for her - an undergarment to keep her comfortable and allow her to put on the brace and keep it on all day. We never intended to use it for anyone other than our daughter, but our orthotist had other ideas - he felt it could help other families as well. So, we took the leap to start our own business, and, since then, our product line has grown. We always keep in mind that our own children are our customer - we design everything with the utmost quality and comfort in mind. And, we love reaching out and helping other families who are going through the journey of Scoliosis.
