Default Swimmer with TOS

My 16 yr. old daughter has been diagnosed with TOS. We are not considering surgery at this time. She REALLY wants to continue swimming. I just want to make sure she is not causing permanent damage by continuing to swim. I also want to do whatever possible to help her keep swimming. Can any swimmers tell me what type of conservative treatment you have done? I'm thinking we can tape the shoulder during practice and she's already in PT. Maybe a brace for posture? Any suggestions would be great. Thanks!
