​​

​Why Choose an Orthopedic Brace?

​

An orthopedic brace is a medical device designed to provide external support to a joint, ligament, or muscle. Braces can be made from a variety of materials, including knit fabric, metal stays, plastic, and carbonfibre. They come in different levels of support, from simple compression sleeves to rigid immobilizers. We carry braces for the ankle, knee, back, elbow, wrist and hand.

​

People seek out orthopedic bracing for a number of reasons, often to help them manage a current injury, prevent a new one, or simply to gain confidence in their movements. A brace can be used to alleviate pain, reduce swelling, and provide stability to an area. Whether you are recovering from a sprain, managing a chronic condition like arthritis, or looking to protect a joint during sports, a brace can provide the support you need to move with confidence.
