SCIATICA

Sciatic nerve is the biggest human nerve. It has width of approx. 1,5 cm and goes from your lower back through your hips and buttocks and down each leg. Sciatica most commonly occurs when a herniated disk compresses part of the nerve. Then, inflammation, lower leg numbness and pain occur. It is called sciatica. In most cases, non-operative treatment is performed. The excellent product for support your back and relieve the pain is our back brace with dynamic lordosis support OT-08.

MATERIALS

ActiveRubber II™

ActiveRubber II™ is strong and bidirectional elasticity. It can be stretched, increasing the length and width, what improves compression. Between the braids air flows freely and skin can breathe. In addition in high compression, these rubber braids provide a gentle massage for skin. Our orthopedic rubber is very friendly for skin.

STIFFENINGS

Orthopedic profiled stays

Orthopedic stays are made of special spring steel, covered with a plastic coating and have rounded and protected ends. They can come in various widths and thicknesses as well as different hardness. They can be pre-shaped or flat. They work in one direction and adapt to the shape of the body while stabilizing the laterally protected part of the body. They are perfectly protected against corrosion, so they are resistant to water, moisture and sweat. Products equipped with them can be washed without removing them from the orthosis. They adjust to the body. The orthopedic stays cannot bend and that is why, they cannot correct the body posture or the secured joint.

Orthopedic stays from ABS

Orthopedic stays available in various width, thickness and shapes are cut from ABS boards. Their role is not to stiffen the orthosis in order to support a joint or other part of the body, but to prevent wrinkling and uncontrolled movement of the fabrics of the orthosis./p>

Plastic stays

They come in various widths and thicknesses, are made of various types of plastics, such as polyamide, ABS or acrylic, and these features determine their stiffness. Thanks to their design, they are resistant to water, moisture and sweat. Products equipped with them can be washed without having to remove them from the orthosis. Our plastic stays work only in one direction, perfectly stabilize the laterally protected part of the body, adjusting to it at the same time and have a memory function, thanks to which they always return to their original shape. This function causes the stays in the orthosis to stabilize the swollen limb immediately after the injury and after the swelling has come off. The plastic stays cannot bend and that is why, they cannot correct the body posture or the secured joint.

Profiled aluminum stays, spine stabilizers

These are splints and orthopedic stays of various thickness and width, which are made of various types of aluminum alloys. All these splints and stays, before mounting to a given orthosis, have been pre-profiled, which allows for fitting the product to the body of a specific patient. However, for the correct operation of the device, they should be precisely bent to the patient's body by an orthopedist, physiotherapist or orthopedist technician. Only this action guarantees the proper protection and support of the patient's body.

Stiffeners of thin ABS

Stiffeners made of a thin ABS plate are very light and protect the correct shape of the brace, but do not stiffen individual parts of the patient's body. The brace has the correct circumferential shape, but does not have the compensating and stiffening function of the protected joints and other protected parts of the body.
