Contra-indications
conservative
and postoperative treatment of posterior shoulder luxation
diseases or
injuries of the skin in the area of use, especially with inflammatory symptoms
(excessive warming, swelling or reddening)
sensitivity
and perfusion disorders of the arms (e.g. in the case of diabetes)
lymph outflow
disorders, as well as undiagnosed swellings of soft tissues, apart from the
area of use

Mode
of action
The
slightly compressive knitted fabric
exerts gentle local compression on
the superficial soft tissues to alleviate
swellings and reduce muscle tensions.
Limitation
and prevention of injurious movements
is kept in check by the upper (white)
strap. Tthanks to the
marked limitation of
external rotation,
abduction and
anteflexion of the shoulder joint,
the injured shoulder can rest, thus
relieving pain.
THe support also corrects
postural deficits in the shoulder with
better centering of the head of the
humerus in the glenoid cavity.
