Back orthosis for the treatment of osteoporotic vertebral body fractures

Osteoporosis, also widely known as bone atrophy, is one of the most common diseases of old age. This back orthosis can be used in the therapy of osteoporotic vertebral body fractures. medi Spinomed strengthens the trunk muscles and helps to actively straighten the back. Thus, the Spinomed back orthosis optimally fulfils the concrete recommendation of the current guideline of the Dachverband Osteologie e. V. (umbrella association for osteology, DVO), according to which a back orthosis should have an uprighting effect on the spine. The more upright posture increases lung volume and reduces the shortness of breath that often occurs in osteoporosis.

Ergonomically pre-shaped and flexible shoulder straps ensure an optimal fit of the orthosis and give it a noticeable lightness. Holes are made in the soft material to promote air circulation. Flexible and breathable material in the abdominal gel ensures a perfect fit and high wearing comfort.
