Halloween is a great time to be creative and dress-up, for kids of all ages.  But, while injured, the patient may not want to draw attention to their injury.  So, we cleared away the cobwebs and came up with a few clever costume ideas to hide various injuries: Walking Boot:  the obvious is Frankenstein! Sling:  Mummify your body! Arm Cast:  Get a large box and cover it in wrapping paper.  Cut

Carpal tunnel syndrome, tendon pain, repetitive motion syndrome or any number of wrist and hand conditions are typically prescribed to wear a black hand or wrist brace.  Black may be the color of choice for formal affairs, but wearing it everyday to support a wrist injury or hand ailment gets old fast.  Coming to the rescue, CastCoverz! introduces Handz!, a fun fashion statement for covering hand

Really?  Yep, there is a time NOT to wear your decorative cast covers.  That time is within the first 3-4 days after a break or surgery.  Especially for children.  Why?  Because the pain is still too great and little ones are afraid of anyone coming near their broken bone.  Wait until the pain (and fear) has subsided.  Otherwise, they will associate pain with their Armz! or Legz! cast cover and

We (still) know your pain.  My daughter and inspiration for CastCoverz! (her 6th broken bone was our lightbulb moment!), just broke her 8th broken bone(s).  She's only 13 and I'm praying that the number of breaks never catch up to her age.  You can bet she'll be sporting some special cast covers and/or Bootz!  Diagram, left, courtesy of http://www.footphysicians.com/

caused the biggest spike in CastCoverz! Legz! and Bootz! sales ever! CastCoverz! presents the picture to the left, Two Feet of Snow, to honor all the people who broke their leg or foot (or both!) in the winter of 2011. I don't know who took the picture or who made the snow statues but this is hilarious! We hope you smiled, too!

CastCoverz! is featured in Today's Diet and Nutrition. The funny part? This is February 2011 and the edition is October 2010 and we didn't even know about it! Thanks to a digitally savvy fan of CastCoverz! for notifying us! Click on Today's Diet and Nutrition , then click on the picture of CastCoverz! and up pops the feature, "What the Well Dressed Cast Will Wear, CastCoverz!" Very cool, very

Yahoo! News picked up CastCoverz! press release: CastCoverz! Transforms Casts, Braces, Boots and Splints with Unique Cast Covers. The press release is a great overview of how CastCoverz! got its start, the research behind the company and the products we offer. Enjoy the read! Family friendly comments are always welcome!

CastCoverz! tagline, "Covering the world one injury at a time" has served us well for the last two years. However, we don't think it properly conveys our fresh, easy, customer-centric brand and extensive line of products. As you know CastCoverz! produces a wide variety of cast covers. But, we've expanded to include covers for boots, braces and splints, too. In addition, we have 3 new product

Winter is a beautiful season, but it can be very dangerous and painful, if you're not careful! Ask anyone what the #1 reason is for broken arms and broken legs during the winter and the answer you most often hear is, "slipping and falling on ice." That is actually a distant second to the number one reason, winter sports (ice hockey, ice skating, sledding, skiing, snowmobiling, snow boarding, snow

CastCoverz! was just featured in the Sioux City Journal. The young man modified an Armz! to cover his hand cast with buddy finger casting. Too bad he didn't know about Gutterz! because he has a gnarly looking cast. In the article, Dr. Beck of Prairie Pediatrics recommends "weatherproofing a cast" and CastCoverz! products are just the prescription to keep snow and wind out of healing bones and

Quest, Muscular Dystrophy's premier magazine, featured CastCoverz! in their recent issue. CastCoverz! knows that wearing a cast or a brace, temporarily or long-term is a burden. We ease that burden with a little levity, a lot of fashion and a dose of functionality, too!

Lower Extremity Review magazine featured CastCoverz! in their August 2010 issue and included a picture of our newly introduced product line: Bootz! "A colorful solution to the irritations of wearing a cast" and "keeps devices clean while making a stylish statement" are just a couple of quotes from the feature.

Just like our customers, the media love CastCoverz! Parenting Magazine's special Back to School issue featured CastCoverz! and so did Women News Magazine. Parenting Magazine's article has eye-catching graphics and Women News Magazine focuses more about the "accidental creation" (love the play on words) of the business.

And I don't mean fractured casts, either! We received an order for 1 Legz!, 1 Bootz! and 1 Armz!. "CastCoverz!" customers are the best and the smartest customers around, but occasionally a mistake is made on an order. Or, maybe in this case, someone was badly injured. So, we contacted the customer, Catherine of Georgia, just to confirm and she's actually using them for a School Play! "Break a leg

For children, the fabric design for Armz! continues to be Happy Hearts for girls (see swatch) and Flames on Red for boys. Though some daring girls and adults are selecting that fabric option, too.

CastCoverz! is proud to announce that it now carries the NEW product, CastShield. As a mom with 7-cast experience, the CastShield takes all the hassle and worry out of the showering and bathing experience. Other waterproof products are available, but CastShield offers significant advantages: it is incredibly easy to use and has a great price point. They aren't available on the retail market

CastCoverz! was front and center of Orthopedics This Week, an industry journal! With syndication such a big force in media, today, I credit Jacqueline Rupp with original journalism.

In addition, she mentioned the tangible benefits of CCZ! cast covers: preventing scratching and irritation of surrounding skin and the

Friday, July 16, KPIX, a CBS affiliate out of San Francisco, featured CastCoverz! Host Brian Hackney agrees it's a "great idea!" CastCoverz! products cover braces or casts, minimize the scratching of skin and the snagging of clothes.

When I told my 12 year old daughter (yes, the one that has broken 7 bones in her lifetime and the inspiration for CastCoverz!), about CastCooler, her eyes lit up!

Coming back down the hill, she started to gain momentum, tripped and tumbled, water wings and all, and

A lot! Just last week, two customers shared with me the reason why they needed cast covers. Their injuries were due to mishaps with animals. One customer was shooing an unwelcome bird out of her garage, the other backed up and over her Basset Hound. I can visualize both incidents, can't you? OUCH!! Paw Prints was a hot seller this week.

Gutterz! is CastCoverz! answer to Ulnar Gutter injuries. You know, those injuries or fractures of the hand/fingers where two or more fingers are wrapped together to stabilize the injured bone. It's the orthopedic equivalent to the Vulcan sign, "live long and prosper." We sold a lot of custom Gutterz! and stock Gutterz!, this week. Patients with broken bones looking for cast covers are finding

When our 7 year old broke her leg on July 2nd, I had the ER doc wrap her full leg cast in red, then white, then blue casting tape. Instead of showing her patriotism, she looked like a barber pole. But, that was before CastCoverz! was born. We've made it much easier for you to show your patriotism! CastCoverz! Freedom Stars is the perfect cover for your arm cast or brace or custom leg cast or
