Musculoskeletal conditions
There are over 200 bones, 600 muscles, 900 ligaments and thousands of tendons in the human body. When they work together in harmony, the body is capable of amazing feats of movement but at times, because of disease or injury there may be a need to support targeted tissues and structures, either to aid in healing or to address symptoms.
Orthoses can be used to reduce stress and strain on targeted tissues, reducing pain and supporting the body to heal. In chronic conditions, orthoses can be used to reduce instability & pain, or improve function.
