Softec Lumbo ®
SofTec Lumbo is a modular
functional lumbar support for stabilization of the lumbar spine and the
lumbosacral transition. Its modular design permits controlled movement
according to an individually adaptable multi-stage regimen.
Stage 1 (Stabilization phase):
For effective postoperative, or initially conservative,
stabilization of vertebral body segments S1 to L3 ("Long") or S1 to L4
("Short"), the support is used together with the shell.
Stage 2 (Mobilization phase):
During the initial stages of mobilization with progressive
rehabilitation, the shell is removed and the textile element in the
affected lumbosacral area is reinforced with CFR rods
Stage 3 (Activity phase):
As patients become increasingly mobile, the CFR rods are
replaced by corset rods, thereby reducing the external supportive
effect.
Product Features:
-
Composed of an elastically knitted base and
outer knitted fabric for stability and an optimal fit
-
The soft knitted materials and wide
fasteners facilitate secure, simple fitting
-
The LPT (Low Power Tension) strap system of
the outer knitted fabric facilitates the application of
considerable force against the body without expending much
effort
-
The plastic half-shell is heat moldable and
anatomically contoured for an optimal fit
-
The CFR (Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic)
rods ensure optimal load transfer of the half shells and
provide lumbar stabilization during progressive mobilization
without half-shells
-
The corset rods provide gentle lumbar
support with increasing mobility and are self-shaping
-
An optional abdominal pad applies targeted
suprapubic support of the abdominal wall for partial relief
and stabilization of the lumbar spine
Can be used to prevent:
-
Post-lumbar disk surgery or a
stabilizing operation (e.g. spondylodesis)
-
Fractures of the lower lumbar
spine
-
Tumors (metastases)
-
Inflammation
-
Spondylolisthesis, spondylolysis
-
Lumbar spinal stenosis
-
Facet syndrome
-
Lumbar syndrome
-
Symptomatic stenoses of the
intervertebral lumbar foramina

Lumboloc ®
LumboLoc provides effective support for the lower back to relieve back
pain.
- Knitted lumbar support incorporating an adjustable,
anatomically contoured silicone insert stabilizes and
relaxes the lower back muscles
- Silicone insert with raised nodules provides
intermittent compression to the soft tissue, leading to
increased circulation, and allowing for unicompartmental
movement
- Intermittent compression stimulates muscle activity
which most lower back supports do not achieve
- Promotes proprioception, thus heightening sensory
awareness in the lower back for increased stabilization
- Anatomical knit carries controlled compression graduated
at the edges to prevent rolling of the support
- Velcro fastenings and hand straps allow for easy
application and adjustment, even for people with arthritis
- Lightweight, breathable knit will not retain heat and is
completely machine washable

|
Can be used to prevent:
- Mechanical low back pain
- Degenerative joint disease (arthritis)
- Lumbar syndrome (muscular imbalance)
- Chronic postural disorders
- Bone formation disorders
|
- Degenerative disc disease
- Minor instability of the lumbosacral spine
- Muscle strain
- Sacroiliac dysfunction

Thoracolumbar Support w/ Warm & Form Insert
Thoracolumbar support with posterior pocket to
hold and position Thermo-Mold rigid insert
or additional padding. Hook and pile closure simplifies
application and allows varying degrees of adjustment for fit. Provides
compression and support to stabilize thoracic, lumbar, sacral, abdominal
regions.

Custom
Bivalve Body Jacket
The Bivalve TLSO is designed to immobilize spinal patients from neck
to hips. This custom TLSO promotes rapid fusion for shorter hospital
stays and is therefore the ideal post-operative brace. A wide variety of
materials, including low or high density polyethylene, copolymer and
polypropylene are available. Indications: Post-operative, Compression
Fractures, Spinal Immobilization

Custom
Scoliosis Jacket
The brace we use employs pneumatic force vector
pads that are air-injected to gently encourage continuous curvature
correction in scoliotic patients. The dynamics of the brace are based on
the same principles used to effect dental correction via orthodontic
appliances. Our brace is custom-cast, custom-fitted, and
custom-fabricated to the exact body dimensions of each patient. It is
designed to fit skin-tight to the patient and is, therefore, relatively
inconspicuous in public. By combining the advancements of the
thermoplastics and pneumatic bladders, elimination of the standard
superstructure and neck ring has now become possible. Being no more than
5 mm thick, the brace creates a minimum bulge under the patient's
clothing.

Shorter, tapered vest design to accommodate pendulous abdomen. Soft,
flexible material at shoulder for increased anterior/posterior
compression. Nylon ball joints for quick and easy assembly.
Adjustable headblocks can independently adjust 3 ways: A/P positioning

SOMI
Somi Brace ( Sterno
Occipital Mandibular Immobilizer ) designed to apply forces under the
chin and occiput to restrict flexion and extension as well as rotation
of the head and cervical spine
|
 |
Jewett
Hyperextension Brace
This orthosis proves excellent three point loads on the sagittal
plane but does very little in motion reduction in the coronal and
transverse planes |
 |
CASH
Hyperextension Brace
This orthosis is similar to the Jewett in that it provides excellent
sagittal hyperextension and does not immobilize the coronal and
transverse planes. Unlike the Jewett, the Cash is light weight and more
cosmetic. |
 |
Short Lumbosacral
Front closure, designed to fit short torsos or when the prescription
specifies a narrower back support due to location of injuries.
|
 |
Lumbosacral Support
Front closure, designed to fit average torsos or when the prescription
specifies a higher back support due to location of injuries
|
 |
Pendulous Lumbosacral
Side closure, designed to lift pendulous abdomens to reduce stress on
spine. Designed for obese figure types.
|

Chairback
Brace
Lightweight,
durable spinal orthosis helps maintain the spine in neutral alignment
and permits ease of movement. Low profile brace offers excellent
rigidity when worn with a snug corset front. Fills the gap between soft
lumbo-sacral supports and rigid leather and metal orthoses. |
