Custom Spinal Orthoses for Less than Prefab!

Leading orthotists, orthopedic surgeons, and neurosurgeons agree: custom-molded LSOs and TLSOs are superior to prefabricated versions in biomechanical motion control and patient compliance. Prefabricated spinal orthoses do not control lateral flexion and rotation and are unable to control motion in all planes as well as a custom. They do not accommodate pendulous patients or provide adequate means to lock on the patient pelvis.

The Spinal Solutions Custom Anterior Overlap LSO/TLSO is the most cost-effective way to provide superior fit and support. An all-inclusive price enables cost-effectiveness while providing the patient with the ultimate in triplanar motion control.
