PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Bauerfeind Spinova Osteo is a lightweight spinal orthosis designed to provide passive and active stabilization, support upright posture, and help relieve spinal strain in patients with osteoporosis. Its pelvic support, long aluminum reclinator, and double-crossed tensioning strap system work together to stabilize the thoracic spine, encourage spinal straightening, and activate the upper back muscles.

The orthosis applies targeted support to help correct postural misalignment and counteract excessive thoracic kyphosis. Its breathable, elastic pelvic support stabilizes the pelvis, while the individually adjustable tensioning straps allow customized straightening and support. Designed with a lightweight, discreet profile, the Spinova Osteo leaves the abdomen and chest area free and can be worn unobtrusively under clothing.

KEY FEATURES

Rigid aluminum reclinator: The long aluminum support element stabilizes the thoracic spine and helps straighten the upper body.

Double-crossed tensioning strap system: Applies targeted, form-fitting pressure to support spinal straightening and postural correction.

Pelvic stabilization: Breathable elastic mesh pelvic support fastens below the abdomen to help stabilize the pelvis and support steady walking.

Individually adjustable straightening: Adjustable straps and practical finger loops allow personalized tension and support.

Back muscle activation: Encourages an upright posture and engages the upper back muscles during wear.

Proprioceptive stimulation: Padded crossed straps provide sensory feedback that can enhance the feeling of stability.
