Effective Spinal and Lumbar Orthosis Solutions

LSO/Lumbo-Sacral Orthosis:

A lumbosacral orthosis (LSO) is used to support part of the body and keep it from moving. An LSO is used on the lowest part of the spine. This area includes the lumbar and sacral spine. An LSO is made to fit from the shoulder blades to the tailbone. Some styles can have parts added to help support the spine at the chest level. An LSO can be made of hard or soft material.

Conditions treated: degenerative disc disease, osteoporosis, spinal fracture Info: An LSO is frequently a two-piece clamshell design. It may also be a single piece with an opening on the front. An LSO extends from just below the breast bones down to the pelvis. It is used to stabilize the spine to promote healing and decrease pain.

Thoracolumbar Spinal Orthosis (TLSO)

The most common form of a TLSO (Thoracic Lumbo-Sacral Orthosis) brace is called the “Boston Brace”, and it may be referred to as an “underarm” brace. This brace is fitted to the child’s body and custom molded from plastic. It works by applying three-point pressure to the curvature to prevent its progression. It can be worn under clothing and is typically not noticeable. It can be taken off to swim, play sports or participate in gym class during the day.

Conditions Treated: treat a variety of conditions including compression fractures, laminectomies, and for use after surgery. Info: The goal of the TLSO is to prevent progression of the scoliotic curve. The brace is typically worn 16-18 hours per day/night. It can be taken off to swim, play sports or participate in gym class during the day.

CTLSO/Cervical Thoracic Lumbo Sacral Orthosis

CTLSO provides spinal stability when reduction in gross spinal range of motion of the Cervical to Lumbar spine (C2-L5) is required. For example post spinal surgery procedure, multi-level spinal injuries or related soft tissue injury and to control and support degenerative spinal complications.

Conditions Treated: scoliosis, kyphosis Info: Can also be used to reduce pain by restricting mobility of the trunk; or to facilitate healing following an injury to the spine or related soft tissues.
