Bandages, orthoses & splints
Orthoses, splints and supports are medical aids that are used to support, stabilise, correct and relieve joints, muscles and ligaments. They can be used for a variety of injuries, illnesses and pain to promote recovery and improve quality of life
Supports, orthoses & splints help with a wide range of indications
Orthoses, splints and supports can be used for a wide range of indications.
Injuries:
Orthoses and splints can be used for fractures, dislocations, ligament injuries and tendon injuries to stabilise and protect the affected joint while it heals. Bandages can be used to provide support and compression for strains, sprains and tendonitis.
Arthritis:
Orthotics and supports can be used for arthritis to stabilise and relieve pressure on the affected joint, relieve pain and reduce inflammation.
Misalignments and deformities:
Orthotics can be used to correct misalignments and deformities such as flat feet, knock knees, bow legs and scoliosis.
Neurological disorders:
Orthoses and splints can be used for neurological conditions such as stroke, cerebral palsy and multiple sclerosis to improve mobility and reduce the risk of contractures.
Back pain:
Back supports can be used to support the spine and relieve back pain.
Depending on the indication, it is important to note that the use of orthoses, splints and supports should always be customised and supervised by a qualified healthcare professional.
What are supports, orthoses & splints?
Orthoses are usually rigid or semi-rigid aids that are used to stabilise joints such as the ankle, knee, wrist and elbow. They can also be used to correct misalignments or deformities. Orthoses are often used after injuries or operations to immobilise and protect the joint while it heals. Immobilisation protects against further pain-inducing movements.
Splints are usually flexible aids that are used to support and stabilise joints. They are often made of plastic, foam or metal and can be customised. Splints are often used for injuries such as fractures, dislocations or ligament injuries to immobilise and stabilise the joint.
Bandages or sports bandages are usually elasticated aids that are used to compress and support muscles and ligaments. They can also be used to relieve pain and reduce inflammation. Supports can be used for injuries such as strains, sprains or tendonitis to stabilise and support the affected area. Sports supports are also used for increased stability during sporting activities and as prophylaxis.
