The DMO® Custom Foundation Suit is a Dynamic Movement Orthosis designed to improve symmetry and assist stabilisation of the trunk, shoulder and pelvic girdle for patients that have musculoskeletal, genetic, and neurological conditions.
Additionally, with the use of compression fabrics, the DMO® Custom Foundation Suit can provide proprioceptive feedback mechanisms to improve spatial awareness and improve muscle motor planning.
The Custom Foundation Suit is the same construction as our DMO® Custom Advanced Suit and is often ideal as a child’s first suit.
Our made-to-measure Custom Dynamic Movement Orthoses® (DMO) are completely bespoke to you and your needs. Prescribed by trained clinicians, we can provide patients with a fully customisable, effective DMO that considers both the patients’ physical needs and personal tastes.
The DMO® Custom Foundation Suit is the cornerstone of our DMO® Suit range, available for both children and adults. It’s a cost effective option when the additional features of our DMO® Custom Advanced Suit aren’t required.
Our DMO® Custom Foundation Suit can provide a range of benefits to help manage symptoms of your condition.
This orthosis can:
• Assist stabilisation of the trunk, shoulder and pelvic girdle • Improve symmetry • Improve proximal stability leading to better distal control
Not limited to one condition, this suit is highly versatile, assisting patients with Cerebral Palsy, Downs Syndrome, Muscular Dystrophy, Spinal Muscular Atrophy, Ehlers-Danlos Syndromes (EDS & hEDS) and many more.
This product is available in one base, reinforcement and stitching colour only. A limited range of fastenings, opening and reinforcements are also available (see our clinical manual for further details).

Our orthoses work using strategically placed panelling which improves body alignment. This new positioning stimulates sensory systems throughout the body and re-programmes the brain, ensuring that muscles operate in their new state of optimal alignment.
Our orthoses use a unique elastomeric fabric designed to give the best combination of flexibility and comfort, enabling freedom of movement.
For our made-to-measure Custom range products you’ll need a clinician to assess, measure, prescribe and fit so please contact us for more information about pricing. If you’re outside the UK you may need to contact your nearest international supplier.
Prices are listed for our pre-sized products such as our Essential range on our website in the UK, the USA and Canada where they can be purchased directly. Pre-sized orthoses are also available through a number of our international suppliers and they will be able to provide more information about prices if you contact them directly.
You may also be able to access our products through NHS or Charity funding. However, NHS funding for orthoses varies throughout the UK. Your local NHS clinician should be able to inform you if there is a funding pathway in your area.
Colours may vary slightly due to screen settings, lighting, and the printing process. We do our best to ensure accuracy, but slight variations in colour may occur.
No, there is no additional cost for choosing patterned fabric. We believe in offering customisation without extra cost wherever possible.
No, choosing a patterned orthosis does not affect lead times. Production and delivery timelines remain the same as for our DMO classic colour range.
