External Rotation Shoulder Cushion The medi SAS light is a brace for immobilising and relieving strain on the shoulder at an angle of 15° abduction and in a neutral position.
This position is particularly recommended after shoulder dislocations and for shoulder instability.
The open design facilitates follow-up treatment and increases wearer comfort. The ergonomic arm sling is simple to open, making specific exercises (pendulum exercises) possible as part of therapy.
Secure holding in 15° abduction and neutral position.
Postoperative healing of the rotator cuff and avoidance of contractions.
Holding position supports the installation of the ventral labrum and the relief of the rear capsule parts.
Avoidance of frozen shoulders and adhesions.
