Braces & Casts

Braces & Casts

Braces and casts are used at Sport & Spine to manage bone, ligament, tendon and muscle injuries of certain types and severity.

• • Simple, undisplaced fractures of the upper and lower limb are often managed with plasters, fiberglass casts, splints and boots.
  • Ligament injuries are often managed in boots, splints and braces to promote healing, protect joints and provide the best long term outcomes.

Combining this early, appropriate injury management with manual therapy and exercise, forms the basic treatment and rehabilitation which will provide the best outcomes and return our patients to previous activity levels.
