"Dynamic Compression Brace Treatment is Worth It."
Former Nuss Center patient Alyssa Testa was diagnosed at an early age with pectus carinatum, a condition that causes the sternum and ribs to protrude outward. The condition may cause breathing and stamina issues and can have a psychological impact on the patient as well.
As one of the first patients to choose dynamic compression brace treatment back in 2010, Alyssa says this non-surgical approach not only accommodated her busy lifestyle, but it also improved it.
For anyone considering this treatment option, Testa says to trust the process and have patience. The long-term results and improvements to quality of life are worth it.
