DMO Orthosis

DMO Medical offers a comprehensive range of dynamic movement orthoses designed to aid the neurological and rehabilitation of musculoskeletal and postural conditions.  We pride ourselves on innovation and research in order to produce world leading products which improve quality of life for those we serve.

Our team of expert clinicians work closely with leading medical professionals to ensure that each product is suited to the needs of the individual. We provide a tailored, personal service from consultation to fitting.

Our orthoses work using strategically placed panelling which positions the body into improved postural alignment. This new biomechanical state combined with enhanced proprioception, stimulates and adjusts the neuro-sensory system, training muscles to work with improved tone, strength and performance.

All these benefits work towards a single goal – to improve function and encourage independence for the user.

Clinical information

The painful subluxed shoulder is a notoriously difficult clinical prob- lem to manage across a variety of patient groups. A number of treatment strategies have been proposed which generally have mixed success. Bespoke Dynamic Elastomeric Fabric Orthosis (DEFOs) represent an emerging treatment strategy for movement and postural control problems. Their use in the management of the painful subluxed shoulder has not however been previously docu- mented.

The case report provides a brief account of a young man with a painful subluxed shoulder as a result of a manual injury. At the end of the initial period of conservative management, the clinical problem had worsened, hindering the prospects for further active rehabilitation. A DEFO was prescribed for this client to provide physical support and facilitate physical activity.
