Introducing Medipro’s RELAX Liner Technology
Now you can offer your patients the first 24-hour solution to relieve phantom pain, phantom sensations, and idiopathic residual limb pain. The Night RELAX is now available at special introductory pricing when purchased singly or in combination with the RELAX BK Liner or RELAX AK Liner. All products within the RELAX Liner family are distributed exclusively by SPS.
Both the Night RELAX and RELAX AK Liner are fabricated using Medipro's proprietary Umbrellan® fabric, which shields the residual limb from electromagnetic influences found within the environment. Umbrellan lessens and/or arrests transmission of the phantom pain or sensation to the receptors and neurons in the cortex of the brain.

No More Restrictions!
The Ortho Remedy, Inc. has developed a new clamp allowing the EndoFlex Prosthesis to be mounted onto newer high-tech prosthetic feet, using their four-bolt pattern adaptor and pyramid receptacle.
The four-bolt pattern adaptor comes with 6mm attachment screws (four) and is used in the same way as the standard EndoFlex foot clamp by incorporating an anterior dynamic alignment screw and two posterior pylon screws. The center plug is still threaded so it can be used for foot bolt attachments.
This new component permits the usage of the EndoFlex design with many of the new feet that have an integrated pyramid.

SPS Exclusive Sale on Amoena Tresia Breast Form!
Realize a 35 percent cost reduction in the price of the Tresia 760 Breast Form, exclusively through SPS.
Revolutionary "white layer" with Shapes2U" technology from Amoena conforms to the unique shape of the chest wall and holds that shape until the form is removed. The unique symmetric shape is designed to be worn on either the left or right side. The shorter side extensions allow the breast form to fit in the bra cup and prevent crossover to the other side. The form is designed to meet the needs of newer surgeries that remove less tissue under the arm and near the sternum.

Scorpion Handheld Laser Line Scanner from BioSculptor
The latest addition to the BioSculptor CAD/CAM solutions is the Scorpion Laser Line Scanner.
The Scorpion Laser Line Scanner is capable of scanning any body segment. Practitioners can directly scan to produce a prosthesis, orthosis, custom liner, knee brace, AFO, seating, TLSO, or cranial helmet. The laser scanner produces extremely detailed scans due to its dual-camera system. The two cameras give the scanner the ability to "see" the laser line from both sides, which captures the cleanest data. The data is imported directly into the BioSculptor software where shape manipulation is performed.
