Mail for help.Help!!
Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Brace Recommendations/Experience?

I asked because I have to make a decision at some point on what to do about braces for when I go skiing in March. Not going to worry about it too much till after my next consultant appointment mid-January though. Assuming that the appointment ends up being with the consultant I saw last time, and not an underling... Not to bash the NHS, but it is a bit hit and miss. The consultant is one of Jonathan Bell's Wimbledon colleagues.


At the risk of conflicting with one of my colleagues the decision to brace is not the same formula for everyone.
Some braces have evidence for effectiveness, some appear to but the research is funded by manufacturers, braces can work by physical retraint or more likely enhancing proprioception. Anything that reduces fear will influence injury risk. Discuss these points as they apply to you,
( do let me know if they aren’t answered satisfactorily Eh oh! )
