  • Andrea is a Junior Olympic synchronized swimmer who was diagnosed with scoliosis. Her pediatrician recommended she come to Scottish Rite for Children for treatment.
    Dr. Charles Johnston decided nighttime bracing would be the best way to keep Andrea’s curve from increasing. Andrea was fitted for a brace, which she was able to wear every night while sleeping.
    A little over two years later, Andrea is done growing and is no longer in danger of her curve increasing. She is slowly stopping the use of her brace and is free to continue swimming and playing sports with her peers.
