medi 3C back brace
- Extension of the lumbar and thoracic spine
- Adjustable sternal pad
- Easy to close
Description
The 3-point hyperextension brace medi 3 C® helps to relieve the lumbar and thoracic spine in the sagittal plane. On the one hand, it extends the lumbar spine and the lower thoracic spine (extension) and, on the other, it holds the lumbar spine in a hollow back position (hyperlordosis). The medi 3 C® has a dynamic sternal pad (cushion at the level of the breastbone), which adjusts to the various positions of the body when standing and sitting. The ratchet fastener makes it possible for the user to open and close it easily. The medi 3-point corset is used when treatment requires partial relief of the lumbar and thoracic spine or restricted freedom of movement of the spinal column in the sagittal plane. This includes, for example, stable compression fractures of the vertebral bodies in the middle and lower thoracic and/or lumbar spine as well as a more pronounced curvature of the thoracic spine as a result of juvenile osteochondrosis. The hyperextension brace is also used for temporary immobilisation after operations._
medi 3 C® helps straighten and immobilise the affected region. Furthermore, the materials used are water-resistant. This simplifies use in day-to-day life.
Intended purpose:
The medi 3C is a brace for relieving load on the lumbar spine/thoracic spine (sagittal limitation of range of motion).
