Benefits of a Brace (Orthosis) or Prosthetic
Orthosis (commonly referred to as braces) will aid in quicker and proper post-operative healing or when surgery is not an option for your pet.
Stabilizes your pet’s joint and supports the affected area to help pet patients regain passive joint motion. You will see the difference immediately as your pet returns to near-normal joint function.
An Orthosis or prosthetic also alleviates the pressure put on the opposite (’good’) limb & prevents additional injury.
It further allows the injured limb to rest by protecting it from added injury while allowing smooth, free motion of your pet’s supported joint/limb.
Not only is the brace preventing cumulative injury, but it will also correct movement and provides a more productive range of motion.
Your pet will be able to bear weight sooner which will fend off a decrease in muscle mass loss.
If you are using splints, the orthosis will be used in their place
Our braces are custom-made with the latest technology and fabrication processes and employ durable and waterproof components.
