Description

HemiSafe is a functional shoulder orthosis specifically designed for use when in subluxation or shoulder pain after stroke. HemiSafe provides a comfortable and stabilizing support for the shoulder and allows the user to a more freely move of the arm during daily activities. HemiSafe is possible to take on and off with one hand and can be used directly on the skin or on top of a linen/underarm without sleeves. The design allows the orthosis to be worn under the clothes. The air gap in the textile contributes to equalize the pressure. As an optional accessory (when desired), a small cushion can be applied under the armpit to reach increased abduction. Available in white
