Spinomed active back brace

  • Active extension of the spine
  • Strengthens the abdominal and back muscles
  • Study proved effectiveness (1,2)

Description

The Spinomed® active corselette variant is a back orthosis that leads to active straightening of the upper body by the biofeedback system. It strengthens the abdominal and back musclesand thus relieves the thoracic and lumbar spine. Spinomed® active complies with the recommendations in the current note for guidance of the Dachverband Osteologie e.V. (DVO). According to these, the effect of a back orthosis should be to hold the spine erect.(3) The more erect posture increases lung volume, while, at the same time, reducing the typical tendency in osteoporosis for the body to sway. This can prevent fractures in the elderly.

Spinomed active can be used for all indications, requiring relief and/or correction of the lumbar/thoracic spine as well as movement restriction in sagittal plan, such as:

  • Osteoporotic bone collapse in the thoracic and lumbar spine
  • Juvenile Scheuermann´s disease
  • Hyperkyphosis with chronic back pain 


Spinomed® active is worn inconspicuously under clothing. With the help of the aluminium back rib, the corselette can be individually moulded to the contour of the spine without any tools. Adjustable shoulder straps ensure a perfect fit. Spinomed® active is also available in a number of variants - for different needs
  • With cup
  • Without cup
  • Black
  • Champagne
The clinical study proves the efficacy of Spinomed® active.(4)

Intended purpose:

Spinomed active is a brace designed to actively relieve load and correct the lumbar spine/thoracic spine in the sagittal plane.
