Spinal orthosis

Spinal orthosis are divided into two categories: soft spinal orthoses and rigid spinal orthoses.

1. The soft spinal orthosis is mainly made of various fabrics (cotton, canvas, nilum cloth, etc.), and is mainly adapted and assisted in the treatment of various chronic low back pain such as lumbar muscle strain and lumbar disc herniation.

2. Rigid spinal orthosis is also called trunk orthosis, which is mainly made of polymer plates. It is mostly used for spinal diseases or injuries that require suggestive restriction of trunk movement.

3. The current status of spine problems

The current state of treatment for spine problems is worrying. According to statistics, about 1.06% of people in China have spine problems, which is an alarming proportion. "Milder spine problems do not need treatment. If the spine problems are obvious, then they need to be treated in time." Common spine diseases mainly include cervical spondylosis, lumbar disc herniation, lumbar muscle strain, fasciitis and so on. The main symptoms are: headache, dizziness, neck pain, shoulder pain, back pain, hand numbness, palpitation, palpitations, nausea, dyspnea, fatigue, poor sleep, blurred vision, waist and leg pain, numbness, restricted mobility, walking Instability, weakness, etc.

 Three, the role of orthotics on the spine

The spinal orthosis acts as an external stabilizing factor to increase the stability of the spine. It is mainly used to restrict spinal movement, assist in stabilizing diseased joints, reduce local pain, reduce vertebral body load, promote healing of lesions, support paralyzed spinal muscles, and prevent and correct spinal deformities.
