The Ottobock Hyper X Plus is a spring-loaded device used to help stop spinal flexion. With every move you make bending forward, your back is stressed by the weight it carries. The Ottobock Hyper X Plus brace aids and supports bending movements to take on some of the load your back carries when bending.
The Hyper X Plus Hyperextension back brace serves in helping the thoracic vertebrae by taking on some of the weight being applied to it. Most braces on the market offer support by compressing the spine in movement; by offering compression, they create a tight functional concentrated movement. This is helpful if your spine is in good health and you are able to still provide normal functionality with ease. However, if you are suffering from spinal complications, such as issues with the ligaments or muscles in the thoracic vertebrae, many popular braces may not be the best option, as they are intended to prevent problems by aiding natural motion.
The Hyper X Plus Thoracolumbosacral orthosis brace is a spring-loaded brace that helps natural movements by offering resistance when bending down. The brace will act as if someone is helping you sit or stand in an upright position. When you are suffering from brittle disks or ligaments and muscles that are not as flexible as they once were, you may have discomfort when standing back up from a bent position or you may have a hard time bending down. This is why the Hyper X Plus Hyperextension back brace is one of the best options in back supports -- to take off the stress caused by these systemic problems.
Many users and doctors who have used other types of braces prefer this brace, not only due in part to its ability to guide and support the user in their mobility but also for the ability to customize the brace to the individual. Your doctor can help you adjust the brace to fit your body type for comfort and maximum performance. The phrase "fits like a glove" applies to this brace, as a customized fit will equal high-quality experience and optimal comfort.
The quick-release and closure locking mechanism provide the ability to take off the brace with ease. The simple detachable device will not need to be formally adjusted every time the brace is taken off with the exception of minor positioning. Comfort is not sacrificed in order to provide efficiency. There are soft pads throughout all the connecting points of the brace, so your selection will not only be an effective one but a comfortable one as well.
Ottobock offers a line of products to help people regain their mobility and aid movement with products such as the Cybertech Hyperextension Orthosis Support and the Cybertech SI Belt, which offers support to the lumbar area.
