Apologies on my late reply, I have not been updating this blog recently.

Regarding scoliosis, yes, my sister did wear the milwaukee brace. It was effective as it did stop the curving of her spine. It did not however make the spine straight though. It just prevents my sister’s spine from further curving.

I remember my sister complaining it was itchy. Your daughter could try swimming, it helps in straightening the spine. Back exercises are also good.

Hope this helps. Sorry I was not able to reply sooner.

I was able to read your family website and it was great. I read that your sister had scoliosis.
I have a beautiful 12 year old daughter who also has scoliosis and will be using the milwaukee brace soon. Just like to know how your sister was able to cope with the brace.. did it correct her scoliosis, was it effective?? hope you could give me some info cause I am really at lost on how to heal my daughter?? your advice or recommendation will be very helpful.. thanks in advance hope to hear from you or your sister.. tnx.
