CALIFORNIA™ ECO EXTENSION COMPRESSION ORTHOSIS

The ECO™ is the latest addition to the California™ family of spinal orthoses. The ECO was developed to comfortably extend the thoracic spine and unweight the wedged vertebral body in order to promote healing and pain relief. The ECO stabilizes the pelvis and lumbar spine to ease pain. Effective for individuals with osteoporosis, vertebral compression fractures, thoracic strains, and debilitating kyphosis.

The ECO is as simple to apply as a backpack or jacket, with easy to reach self-adjusting and padded shoulder straps. The metal spinal frame can be easily contoured to the patient’s thoracic and lumbar spine.

Features
Patented California Compression abdominal component, made of cool, breathable mesh provides cinching mechanical advantage.
Detachable abdominal component can be used independently of remaining system to provide a functional lumbar spinal orthosis.
Durable, one-pull compound closure provides patient adjustable compression.
Patient controlled shoulder extension improves compliance and tolerance.
Non-twisting strap design makes application easy for elderly individuals with limited shoulder mobility.
Requires no tools for fitting procedure.
Padded shoulder straps loosen without completely unfastening in order to facilitate simple reapplication.
Contourable, aluminum “spine” is lined with Coolfoam and extends from the thoracic area to the symphysis pubis.
