Ongoing Care Solutions DynaPro® Torticollis Orthosis
Ongoing Care Solutions DynaPro® Torticollis Orthosis- Ideal “static – dynamic” therapy to reverse mild to severe Torticollis. Orthotic therapy for mild to severe Torticollis of the head and neck. The flexible upright will “give” with an involuntary episode of tone. Excellent for treating lateral neck contractures for patients with spasticity. Effective treatment to restore normal alignment to the head and neck. Device is best used with the patient seated or upright. The DynaPro® Torticollis Orthosis has a “Bend to Fit” shoulder girdle that is hand formed to the shoulder with the device aligned so that the flexible upright is centered on the head. A shoulder strap is secured to maintain device orientation. The thermoplastic upright should be heat molded 30 degrees “ahead”, so that when applied, the upright flexes into the head and neck providing a therapeutic stretch. The unique flexible properties of the device will facilitate muscle inhibition to predispose the affected joint(s) to the benefits of Low Load Prolonged Stretch (LLPS) provided by the orthotic. By increasing wearing time to three to six hours per use, the Total End Range Time (TERT) of device wear allows the Muscle Spindle to re-set at a greater resting length, providing long effects stretch and permanent increases in joint range of motion over time. The device should be modified by heat molding the upright as needed every 4 to 6 weeks to continue contracture reversal. Orthotic treatment should be continued until the contracture is reversed. It is recommended that the device is used to improve head and neck ROM to at least 20 degrees past neutral for best results.
