Acquiring a Humeral Orthosis with a Friendly, Professional Team

With a humeral orthosis, recovering from a fracture of the upper arm — whether from a fall, a sports injury or another incident — can prove more manageable. Orthotic devices can help to improve the speed with which injuries heal through immobilisation of the affected areas to promote faster healing. With Dynamic Prosthetics & Orthotics, patients can enjoy working with a friendly team to acquire the device requested by the doctor.

The History of Humeral Brace Orthotics

How much do you actually know about the orthotic devices you’ve had recommended to you? Believe it or not, but their history is actually not as long as you might think. While orthotics as a concept have been around since ancient times, the devices we know and use today are very different and come from different origins.

  • The first major modern advances in orthotics came in the post-war period following World War II. With hundreds of thousands of injured veterans — combined with many individuals who suffered from polio in the prior decades — creating supportive devices took on a new importance.
  • By the 60s, our understanding of biomechanics — the science behind the way our bones and muscles move and interact — had advanced significantly, leading to a modern orthosis design. Biomechanical research contributed to the next wave of orthotic development.
  • Today, computer modelling and highly detailed research enables the creation of orthotics that help to promote the body’s natural healing processes while offering greater comfort and flexibility than ever before.
