ORTO PWA 804 Hyper-Extension Functional Corrective Corset
English Description:
The ORTO PWA 804 hyper-extension functional corrective corset offers a superior level of support and immobilization for the thoracolumbar spine. This innovative design features a three-point fixation system with a movable lower panel, ensuring comfortable and effective treatment. The rigid frame, adjustable in both height and width, provides a customized fit.
Key Features:
- Three Pelottes: The corset incorporates three strategically placed pelottes: thoracic, pelvic, and spinal. The thoracic pelotte utilizes a hinge joint for controlled movement, while the pelvic pelotte is integrated into the movable lower panel. The spinal pelotte, secured by a ratchet mechanism, offers adjustable compression.
- Adjustable Frame: The frame’s adjustable design ensures a precise and comfortable fit for a wide range of body types. Soft padding minimizes discomfort during wear.
- Movable Lower Panel: The innovative movable lower panel enhances comfort, particularly while sitting, by preventing pressure on the hips and pelvis.
- Hyper-extension Support: The corset effectively holds the spine in maximal extension, reducing kyphosis and relieving pressure on the thoracic and lumbosacral regions. This weight redistribution minimizes strain on the vertebrae.
- Secure Fixation: A reliable ratchet mechanism provides secure and adjustable spinal fixation.
