Orthotic braces or orthoses are devices used to support and align, stabilize and protect a weakened joint bone or body part. Orthotics promote healing and improve functionality, making movements like walking more efficient and comfortable. Orthotics are worn briefly after an injury or surgery to help with specific mobility challenges and provide support.
At Well Beings Medicine, we provide comprehensive orthoses customized to meet your comfort and lifestyle needs. Some conditions may require long-term use of orthoses to improve stability for everyday support. Orthosis help treat and manage some of the following conditions:
- Diabetes
- Fractures
- Polio
- Multiple sclerosis
- Spinal cord injury
- Foot pain and deformities
- Scoliosis
- Muscular Dystrophy
- Drop foot
- Advanced arthritis
- Cerebral Palsy
- Nerve injuries
- Burn Management
Orthoses can improve your quality of life by becoming more productive at work, minimizing the risk of additional injuries, and enjoying performing your activities without fatigue and pain.
Different types of orthoses are designed for the functionality and protection of other body parts like hips, back, spine, knee, shoulder, foot/ ankle, and hand/elbow and wrist. Once we evaluate your needs, we recommend a brace that helps relieve your pain and discomfort while stabilizing the affected area, minimizing inflammation, and reducing pressure.
