Features & Benefits
The Jewett Hyperextension Brace – Short is a lightweight, anatomically contoured spinal orthosis designed to aid recovery from spinal injuries or post-operative procedures. Tailored for individuals with shorter torsos or lower thoracic involvement, this compact brace effectively limits forward flexion of the thoracic and lumbar spine. It delivers targeted support using a three-point pressure system that engages the pectoral, suprapubic, and dorsolumbar regions, promoting spinal extension while relieving pressure on the anterior vertebrae. Moreover, the brace incorporates a 3-axis adjustable pectoral plate and a multi-position dorsolumbar pad, allowing it to adapt precisely to the user’s unique anatomy. For added customisation, the height-adjustable pelvic support band rotates in 20° increments, helping users achieve an optimal, secure fit. Meanwhile, the strong yet lightweight aluminium frame provides reliable stabilization without restricting movement—making it ideal for daily therapeutic use.
