Orthosis designed to support the neck and upper trunk
A cervicothoracic orthosis helps stabilise the neck and upper chest. It may be used when the cervical spine requires reinforced support and restricted movement, according to the prescription and recommendations of a healthcare professional.
A cervicothoracic orthosis is designed to support and stabilise the neck and the upper part of the trunk.
It provides a higher level of support than a standard cervical collar and helps limit certain movements of the cervical spine during a recovery period.
Different types of cervicothoracic orthoses may be offered depending on the medical prescription, the person’s body shape, the area requiring stabilisation and the necessary level of immobilisation.
Precise fitting is essential to provide appropriate support, maintain comfort and reduce the risk of excessive pressure points.
