[quote=Anonymous]Just wanted to add that I was pigeon toed. I never had night braces and the problem didnt appear that it was going to correct itself. When I was in the 3rd grade I was fitted with twistoflex leg braces. They were basically steel cables that ran from a belt to a steel plate in the outside edge of the heel of my shoes. Tension to gradually force my feet into alignment was adjusted with a hex key wrench at the hip attachment. They worked great. It was a pain having to wear shoes all the time and an even bigger hassle to have to have my shoes on before my pants but my mom was able to sew zippers in my pants legs which made it all work out. Now this was back in the 1960's. I would expect better technology today.[/quote]
