Natalie--Your daughter may have a sensory processing challenge in that she has a sensory registration issue or a tactile defensive issue and cannot tolerate the sensation of weight bearing through her feet or through her joints. If this is the case, braces, shoes and orthopedics will not help. She may need a brushing protocol and in that case, an occupational or physical therapist trained in sensory processing disorders will be your best bet. The organization, Sensory Integration International, may have an international directory of trained therapists on their website where you might find a locally trained therapist. Best of luck to you and please keep us posted on how your daughter is doing. I hope this information was helpful.
