<p>Otostick's story starts when Francisca Gamero, her creator, realizes that her daughter's ears begin to separate with only 4 months of age due to the bad postures taken at bedtime.</p> <p>After the daily observation, he noticed that these bad postures were due to the lack of strength in the neck of her baby, appreciating that she dragged his head by the pillow when moving. Following the logic of the rest of orthopedic products and solutions, her creator thought that the growth of the ear in a suitable position would manage to keep the ear in this natural position permanently. She tried to find, without success, a non-invasive solution for the correction of protruding ears. In spite of the existence of orthopedic products that corrected certain physical conditions, there was no non-invasive solution that corrected the excessive separation of the ears or acted as a preventive method against the bad postures adopted by the babies.<br /> </p> <p>In the absence of alternatives, she began using adhesive tape. In one of the visits to the pediatrician, the doctor could see the bandages that her daughter was wearing and the surprise was the favorable opinion of the pediatrician, who only pointed out that the most complicated was the constancy to achieve the definitive correction.<br /> </p> <p>From that moment, she began to believe in the possibility of creating a product for sale in pharmacies to correct the excessive separation of the ears without the need for surgery.</p> <p>One of the data that got Francisca Gamero to trust the viability of this product was to verify that 5% of the population was affected by this excessive separation of ears, and also 70% of people surgically intervened for it, were minors.<br /> </p> <p>Otostick begins to be manufactured and commercialized in 2008 in Spain. It is a unique device worldwide and internationally patented under Otostick brand.<br /> </p>
