What Are Upper Extremity Orthotics?
Upper extremity orthotics are devices designed to support, align, prevent, or correct deformities and improve the function of the upper limbs, including the shoulders, arms, elbows, wrists, and hands. These orthotics can be custom-made or prefabricated and are used in the treatment of a variety of conditions, such as fractures, nerve injuries, arthritis, muscle weakness, and post-surgical recovery.
Frequently Asked Questions
Upper extremity orthotics can be used to treat a wide range of conditions, including fractures, arthritis, nerve injuries, muscle weakness, tendonitis, cerebral palsy, and post-surgical recovery. These devices help support the affected area, reduce pain, and enhance functionality.
A custom orthotic device is typically recommended if you have a specific condition that requires a tailored solution for optimal support and comfort. During your consultation, our orthotists will assess your condition and determine whether a custom or prefabricated orthotic is the best option for you.
The duration for wearing an upper extremity orthotic varies depending on the condition being treated and your individual needs.
