I tried two different braces on, and neither was comfortable, so I'm putting that decision on hold for the moment. I think I really need to strengthen muscles rather than try to hold them up with a brace. I had acupuncture today and my acupuncturist gave me the name of a woman who tailors exercises for each client called the Egoscue Method, which I think I'd like to try. I am willing to look at different modalities for answers in hopes of finding something that could help. The brace will always be waiting in the wings.
