Product’s description

Human skin is the best Mother’s Nature gift. Is has a range of properties. The skin protects our body against the microorganisms, bacteria and harmful UV-rays. Many skin’s receptors receive tactile stimuli. The skin is not afraid of frost or heat wave because it adapts to each weather conditions. Its high resistance protects internal tissues and organs. The skin is soft, flexible and resistant to stretching. It works exactly as our innovative OT-13 lower back brace.

Back brace OT-13 is inspired by nature. We wanted to create unique brace which will reflect a human’s skin properties.

The thickness of the brace is similar to skin. This solution provides natural, physiological cooperation between brace and body. Softness and flexibility of the fabric maintains gentle but effective compression, increases proprioception. The brace is equipped with a few orthopedic elastic stays which support the lower back. In addition, it has wrap around straps for perfect fitting and compression.

The OT-13 brace is made of innovative ProFit™ fabric.

OT-13 lower back brace, similar to human’s skin, maintains the optimal joint’s temperature and reduces aching muscles and pain. What’s more, the belt provides gentle compression and increases proprioception which is important in case of neurological disorders. Orthopedic stays support spine, muscles, ligaments and other soft tissues with your motion. Day-to-day use prevents against herniated disc and other spinal conditions.

Active application of the brace reduces the pain and improves the healing. The brace is elastic but resistant to stretching at the same time. Due to this fact, the brace keeps the anatomic shape of the trunk and provides effective compression and support for a long period of time.

Our innovative OT-13 lower back brace is the best natural choice!

MATERIALS

AirRubber™

AirRubber™ has unidirectional elasticity and it’s breathable. This lamination is perforated. 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.

ProFit™

ProFit™ is a double-layer fabric that is elastic in all directions and fits to limb precisely. The external side is made of spandex providing excellent compression and absorbs muscle shocks in physical activity. The internal side consists of microfibre, cotton and elastane what makes it skin-friendly, breathable and provides velvet softness. ProFit™ is friendly and neutral for the skin and has Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certificate. In some products this material can have an internal elastic cotton layer.

STIFFENINGS

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.

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.
