Arm & Wrist Braces for Maximum Support in Edmonton
We provide bracing for the wrist, elbow, and shoulder. These devices are typically used to maintain proper alignment, limit movement post surgically, and limit painful motion. For each of these joints we offer full custom-made hand crafted designs to “off the shelf” (OTS) devices which are sourced from various suppliers. Given the quality products that are available to us from our suppliers, we often access our suppliers and modify the designs when required. When this is not an option, we would take an impression and or measurements of the limb and manufacture the device required. For the wrist most patients are pursuing bracing due to arthritis, carpal tunnel syndrome, or trauma related injuries whereas for the elbow and shoulder most are related to injury or joint instability.
Wrist Supports
We offer stock wrist braces and custom supports. Most braces are manufactured using plastic or leather. A Certified Orthotist will cast your arm for the custom wrist brace to be manufactured. We now offer a very unique product from Exos. Exos technology is the world’s first dry heat, fully customizable, adjustable, reconformable, waterproof splinting, casting and bracing system. This revolutionary technology is designed to dramatically change the clinical practices for external musculoskeletal support and stabilization.
The technology consists of three layers of high tech polymers and foam that when laminated together create a lightweight matrix with features that have multiple benefits for our clinicians and patients. Exos products are easy to use and feature a clean, waterless application that does not require stockinette or cotton padding. They are simple to remove and do not necessitate the use of messy, loud, often disturbing cast saws. Exos products provide excellent stabilization with superior comfort for greater patient compliance.
Common applications/devices are for arthritis, carpal tunnel, tendonitis, night splint for ulnar neuropathy, thumb spica, etc.
Elbow Supports
If you have an elbow problem, there are a few options on how to brace the elbow. We do have the ability to order you a support as well as custom fabricate one for you. After being assessed, you will be advised of the best support for you.
Shoulder Supports
There are many shoulder supports available that utilize various materials. Typically a neoprene style with non elastic straps is most common. The type of support used would reflect the degree of the injury and also the activities in which the device will be used.
