Therapeutic Benefits and Action:

This innovative orthosis actively corrects upper limb positioning, promoting gentle forearm supination and extension. It effectively unloads the shoulder joint by partially compensating for the weakened muscles of the shoulder girdle and arm. The Omo Neurexa facilitates appropriate positioning of the humeral head, reducing strain on the joint capsule and mitigating subluxation or dislocation. It also helps to decrease spasticity and alleviate pain. By safeguarding the paretic limb against sudden movements, it aids in restoring body symmetry, improving gait, and facilitating therapeutic exercises during the rehabilitation process.

Advanced Features for Optimal Performance:

• Anatomical Design: The precisely engineered structure ensures a superior fit around the scapular and forearm regions.
• Adjustable External Straps: External fastening straps allow for precise fitting and accurate positioning of the orthosis for personalized support.
• Removable Silicone Applicator: Includes a detachable silicone applicator for localized massage and reflex muscle activation in the scapular area.
• Non-Slip Silicone Lining: An internal silicone coating prevents the orthosis from shifting during wear.
• Advanced PCM® Thermoregulating Material: This cutting-edge material enables prolonged use regardless of ambient temperature, preventing overheating and skin irritation.
