Orthoses
Targeted support for joints and movement patterns
Orthoses are used to stabilize, guide, and relieve pressure on joints and body regions. They are used, among other things, following injuries, surgeries, and in cases of ligament and tendon damage, Arthrose or neurologischen Erkrankungen. Depending on the specific orthosis, they support the healing process, promote mobility, and can help reduce symptoms.
Various orthotic systems are available for different medical conditions—for example, for Knie, Rücken, the ankle, foot, shoulder, elbow, or wrist. Proper fitting and individualized selection are crucial to ensure that the orthosis meets the patient’s specific needs and is suitable for its intended use.
A special focus is placed on the Knie- and Rückenorthesen-Testwochen,, which take place twice a year. During these events, various orthoses from renowned manufacturers can be tested in direct comparison and evaluated under expert guidance. This makes it easier to select a suitable orthosis and allows for testing its suitability for everyday use even before a final decision is made.
