Pectus Carinatum BracingPectus Carinatum, a condition where the patient's chest wall sticks out more than usual, is often treated with dynamic bracing. Active Life's comfortable pectus bracing is custom fabricated from a 3D scan of the patient's torso and designed to reduce the severity of the deformity over time.
Pediatric Orthotics & BracingOne of Active Life's speciality services include pediatric orthotic management. We provide expert treatment of certain orthopedic and neuromuscular conditions such as cerebral palsy, muscular dystrophy, club foot and more, and are involved with several children's hospitals and specialty clinics, which have given Active Life exposure and expertise in pediatrics in a manner that is hard for many other orthotic providers to achieve.

Pediatric ProstheticsActive Life is passionate about helping the pediatric amputee or congenital deformity population that require pediatric prosthetic devices. We recognize that because of the age of the client there are many non-traditional aspects to providing service and care that must be considered, such as the psycho-social elements of the client and the family, as well as the need to accommodate for growth of the child and the absolute necessity of helping our pediatric clients feel like they join their friends in normal activities and not feel awkward about their condition. Your Active Life prosthetist has special training in pediatric prosthetic services and care, and is well equipped to take excellent care of this very special group of individuals.
