About this listen

In this episode, recorded live at the 51st Academy Annual Meeting and Scientific Symposium in Atlanta, host Seth O'Brien, CP, FAAOP(D), explores the psychosocial impact of scoliosis with two leading voices in the field: Megan Glahn Castille, MS, CPO/LPO, assistant professor at Baylor College of Medicine and founder of the nonprofit Scolios-us, and David Speers, CPO/L, faculty member at Northwestern University Prosthetic Orthotic Center. They delve into strategies for easing patient anxiety, the power of empathy and encouragement, and how to foster patient empowerment. The conversation also covers current bracing options, educational practices, and helpful resources for clinicians and families navigating scoliosis care.
