The Hyperextension Orthosis has thoracic and pubic areas made from heat-moldable Kydex for easy custom fitting, and a single height adjustment screw. The foam liner is absorbent, wicking moisture away from the skin and preventing skin breakdown. A flexible ethylene posterior panel with foam liner is supplied for increased stabilization and pain reduction. It is low-profile enough to be worn under clothing.
