Who Uses This Product? Patients requiring trunk stability and motion restriction in the lumbosacral region after an injury or surgery.
Why They Love It: The Horizon brace provides midline support without being constrictive. The FlexTab technology contours to the body and disperses pressure. The SlickTrack tightening system is pulled while the brace is on to achieve the most comfortable compression level. These features reduce muscle spasms and restrict motion while also increasing the comfort level of the wearer to encourage compliance with therapy.
AspenHorizon 631 LSO Back Support Brace Overview
The Aspen Horizon 631 LSO Back Brace is a lumbar-sacral orthosis with sagittal control that offers rigid support from the sacral region to the T-9 vertebra. The brace provides trunk stability to fatigued muscles after back surgery or injury. It uses a pull-through sizing mechanism and adjusts without using tools. This corset-style brace fits waist sizes 24 to 50 inches. Once the back brace is properly fitted, upper and lower compression is applied using the front pull strings. The compression reduces back pain by supporting tight muscles while improving blood circulation to those tissues. The rigid support combined with compression helps the patient regain an active lifestyle while recovering. Interior FlexTabs provide midline support and disperse pressure to aid in comfort for patient compliance. Another advantage to the Horizon line of back braces is that the rigid back panel is removable and the brace can be stepped down as needed to continue to wear the brace for ongoing pain control through different stages of recovery.
