Spinomed

Spinomed - effective therapy for vertebral fractures due to osteoporosis.

Spinomed® sets new standards in functional therapy for vertebral fractures due to osteoporosis: the patient receives a multifunctional orthosis that ensures safe and effective mobility, while being simple and comfortable to use daily.

Spinomed® is an orthosis that actively contributes to strengthening the trunk muscles while relieving and correcting spinal posture in the sagittal plane. It is suitable for vertebral fractures, but also for other indications requiring relief and/or correction of the thoracic and lumbar spine, such as:

• Juvenile Scheuermann's disease
• Hyperkyphosis with chronic pain

The less noticeable the medical device, the more likely the patient is to use it. The new Spinomed was developed based on this premise.

Unique on the market - the new pivoting joint :

The innovative pivoting joint separates the movement of the posterior splint from the hip strap, allowing for a secure fit. This means excellent freedom of movement combined with great wearing comfort. Thus, Spinomed® allows the patient to enjoy daily life with greater mobility.

Shoulder strap system - now even better: ergonomically pre-shaped shoulder straps allow the Spinomed® to be easily put on and taken off. This improved system activates postural correction as soon as the Spinomed® is put on. And its padded material provides maximum comfort.

Other highlights of the new Spinomed®:

• The optimized sizing system ensures a better fit for the patient.
• With a new design and new material, the padded back panel provides greater comfort during use and efficient sweat control.
• With its structured handle design and grips on both sides, it can be easily and effortlessly put on.
• The aluminum splint can be removed for individual adjustment to the curvature of the patient's spine.

It is common for patients with osteoporosis to experience postural problems after a lumbar or thoracic spine fracture: the fracture can lead to curvature of the spine, and the patient tends to lean forward more and more. Spinomed® uses the principle of biofeedback to counteract this: with the resistance generated by the shoulder straps, the orthosis reminds the body to adopt the correct posture on its own. This leads to postural correction and also:

• Reduction of pain and the tendency to sway.1, 2
• Improved vital capacity and quality of life.1, 2
• Strengthening of the abdominal and back muscles.1, 2
• Improvement of the respiratory system.1, 2

In addition to these, the benefits of Spinomed® therapy have been proven among its users3:

• 94% recommend the use of the orthosis.
• Approximately two-thirds confirm that Spinomed contributes to improved mobility or enhances quality of life, making it very pleasant to use.
• More than half report a reduction in pain with the use of the orthosis.
