ORTHOPEDIC BRACE What are Orthopedic Braces and How Do They Support? Orthopedic braces are a fairly common, but are often a misunderstood part of recuperative medicine. Typically, they’re used to immobilize joints and allow them to heal in an effective position. This way muscles, tendons and ligaments receive the right amount of blood flow and avoid movements that may aggravate or worsen existing injuries. In some cases, the right braces can even help with recovering full range of movement after a surgical procedure. What is a Brace? Orthopedic braces are objects made of rigid materials, such as hard plastics, and soft materials such as spandex or other tightly-knit fabrics designed to inhibit the movement of a joint. The purpose of a brace is to ensure that a joint is unable to move beyond a certain range of motion, or in some cases at all. This ensures all connective tissues get the chance to heal properly. Unlike a cast, a brace can be easily worn or removed for bathing or physical therapy. In some cases, a brace can even allow you to retain use of your muscles for reasonable exercise. Orthopedic braces serve a large number of purposes, depending on which body part needs healing assistance.
