[quote=Anonymous]OP here. Thanks to the first two who responded. I obviously don't want to put my daughter through any unnecessary torture and am definitely leaning against the night braces. I'm just trying to figure out if there are any alternatives to correcting this problem. My DD walked on her knees for so long that she is now naturally inclined to have her toes point in (when you walk on your knees, your toes automatically point in) and she not only walks pigeon-toed but also sits in a high chair with toes pointed toward each other, sleeps that way, etc. I just don't want to let the problem get any worse and the night braces initially seemed like the way to nip the problem in the bud. Clearly I need to do more research before deciding. We're going to see another PT next week for another opinion, but in the mean time, if anyone else has input, I'd love to hear it. Thanks again.[/quote]
