Rosie’s Story

Female 13 Years Old

**Left**: Pre treatment **Left-Middle**: In brace **Right-Middle**: Post brace **Right**: Final brace to control lumbar curve

Patient

This 13-year-old girl developed a right thoracic curve during her early adolescent growth spurt. Her mother first noticed changes in posture, including uneven shoulders and waist, and a visible right rib hump. Her initial Cobb angle was 37°, with a left pelvic shift.

Treatment

Rosie was fitted with a custom Gensingen Brace soon after her initial consultation. An in-brace x-ray showed an over-correction to -12°, indicating excellent brace effect.

Outcome

Her first out-of-brace x-ray, taken during a routine NHS review, showed a significant reduction in Cobb angle. Her curve pattern had also changed, and a new brace was fitted to optimise correction across both thoracic and lumbar regions. Her posture is now symmetrical, and she continues to progress well toward long-term stability.

Braced for Scoliosis: Our Testimonials

“Thank you Debs and Sally from the bottom of my heart, you saved my daughter from a life of pain and suffering. We will forever be indebted to you.”

“Professional, friendly, in-depth consultation with personal approach and realistic advice for the next steps. Highly recommended.”

“Sally is treating my son for scoliosis and he is already improving. Highly recommended.”

“My mother who is 75 and has thoracic kyphoscoliosis, went to see Sally recently, all the way from Scotland. Sally has given her a back support brace which has helped enormously to keep her upright. She also recommended a figure of eight back corrector which has been of great use as well. Sally was a delight to work with and is hugely knowledgeable and we can highly recommend her.”

“Sally currently braces our two daughters for their scoliosis. Having previously used LOC we feel that Sally’s wealth of experience and knowledge with the Gensingen brace is what we really wanted and are so happy to now be working with her. Sally and Debs are both friendly and professional and our girls are extremely comfortable working with them both. Their combined knowledge fills us with confidence and hope. Thanks to you both Xx “

“Our daughter, Georgia, has had scoliosis from the age of 6 and has worn a back brace pretty much 24/7 ever since then, successfully avoiding surgery. Sally has taken care of Georgia’s bracing for the past few years and not only cares for her physical well-being but critically also her emotional well-being. Sally understands how difficult it is for a child and then a teenager to have to wear a bulky brace, day and night, which can be uncomfortable and sometimes painful, as well as the psychological challenges that come with that. Sally is super efficient, professional and an expert at what she does, as well as caring. She has helped us manage and cope with Georgia’s scoliosis and we would highly recommend her to any family having to deal with this difficult condition.”

“We have been seeing Sally since 2019, firstly at her previous company and now independently. We moved with her as she’s amazing and we trust her. Our daughter’s know her since she was 5 and we believe this consistency is important. I would highly recommend Sally and also the Gensingen brace. We’re having amazing results and are hoping to avoid spinal fusion surgery.”

“Sally is always professional and friendly and is always able to help if needed by text or email. Would have no problem recommending Sally for private orthotic treatment.”

“Professional, friendly, in-depth consultation with a personal approach and realistic advice for the next steps.”
