Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between a rigid and a semi-rigid back brace?

A rigid brace uses firm panels to hold the spine still after a fracture or surgery. A semi-rigid brace has stiff stays or a panel but still bends a little, so it suits strains and milder injuries.

Which braces are used after a spinal fracture?

A TLSO is common for fractures in the middle of the back, and a rigid LSO for the lower back. Your doctor chooses the type, so check before you buy.

Can these braces be adjusted as swelling changes?

Many have pulley or hook and loop closures you can loosen or tighten through the day. Check each product page for its closure type.
