Children’s Schanz Collar with Removable Cover – Neck Support Brace

Description

The Gewinn Children’s Schanz Collar with removable cover provides proper anatomical support with a chin cutout. Suitable for preschool and school-aged children. The neck brace base is made from resilient, elastic polyurethane foam, while the removable cover is crafted from a hypoallergenic material. Secured with a Velcro closure, it’s designed for 24/7 use. This collar minimizes axial load on the cervical spine, prevents muscle strain and injury during physical activity, offers stabilizing and unloading effects, restores cervical lordosis, relieves pathological pressure on blood vessels to improve cerebral blood flow, and provides gentle warmth and stabilization to the neck muscles. The breathable and moisture-wicking material ensures comfort and ease of use.

Indications

The Schanz collar is indicated for neck injuries and conditions such as osteochondrosis, muscle tone disorders, myositis, and cervical syndrome. It’s also suitable for the prevention of neck injuries and conditions, and for rehabilitation following neck injuries, cervical spine surgeries, and traumatic brain injuries.

Instructions for Use

Wrap the collar around the neck, positioning the chin in the designated cutout. Secure the Velcro closure, overlapping if necessary. Refer to the size chart (located in the product images section) for proper sizing. Measure the shortest distance from the chin to the jugular notch (or from the lower jaw to the clavicle – see diagram in the size chart image) to determine the appropriate size. Ensure the head is in a neutral position (no tilting) during measurement. This collar provides moderate cervical spine support.
