Stay the Course

Spring fever has hit our home! As the temperature rises, brace wear becomes a bit more challenging. We have found that a light application of baby powder significantly increases comfort and decreases irritation, during the warm months. A bit of encouragement is required to "stay the course" on brace "wear time". Since we have seen marked improvement over the last 6 months, brace wear and exercise must continue-we've seen great results! However, the temptation is to "take a break."
Remind yourself and your child of the long term goals here. Despite temptation, stay the course, and continue bracing and exercise. Stay focused on your goals!
Have a blessed day.
