A support assembly, comprising a sleeve configured to surround a portion of a limb of a wearer; the sleeve having a main body defining a first opening, a second opening, an inner surface, and an outer surface, wherein the first and second openings are configured to receive a limb of a wearer. The support assembly includes a support insert configured to engage the sleeve and be held in position against a limb of a wearer by the sleeve; and a strap configured to be positioned around the support insert and sleeve and retain the support insert against the portion of a limb of a wearer.

A garment includes a longitudinal arch support configured for supporting a longitudinal arch of a foot; and a transverse arch support that extends from the longitudinal arch support and is configured for supporting a transverse arch of the foot.

An extra-light orthosis includes a woven elastic fabric sleeve, shaped to exert compression forces on a member on either side of and on a joint, and a plate fixed onto an inner face of the sleeve to come into direct contact with the skin on the joint, the plate including an elastic fabric layer onto which a layer of polymer gel is adhered, an annular part shaped to surround the top of a joint protruding area, and a tab extending from an outer edge of the annular part, in an axial direction of the sleeve, the plate adhering to the skin such that, under the effect of the compression forces exerted by the sleeve, when the sleeve is longitudinally stretched, the plate remains stretched and applies tensile forces locally to the skin parallel to the surface of the skin, toward the center of the annular part and of the joint.

Provided are a connecting module and a motion assistance apparatus including the same, the connecting module including a case provided to incline downward from a space recessed between a waist and a hip of a user to a hip joint of the user, a power transmitting assembly disposed in an internal portion of the case, and a supporting module connecting portion disposed at an output terminal of the power transmitting assembly and to be fastened with a supporting module that supports a leg of the user.

A post-traumatic immobilization device is produced by a method thereof. The device has an architectural form with a rounded shape, formed by at least two complementary rigid parts (1a, 1b), in the form of a mesh (11). The parts define respective concave cavities and include curved connecting ends (12), and fasteners provided with raised portions (13) for the coupling of elastic O-rings (2) that clamp the rigid parts (1a, 1b) to one another. A method produces the post-traumatic immobilization device.

The method of manufacturing kinesio brace includes steps of: preparing an elastic body which is tube-shaped to have a first face inside and a second face outside, the elastic body defining an axial direction; inserting an inner mold into the elastic body so that the first face faces to the inner mold; placing the inner mold with the elastic body into an outer mold and closing the outer mold, the outer mold being formed with at least one groove on an inner surface thereof; injecting a plastic material into the groove to shape into a plastic layer which is engaged with the second face of the elastic body; removing the outer mold and the inner mold from the elastic body, reversing the elastic body to make the second face and the plastic layer face inward to provide a kinesio brace.

A penile tension system features a semi-hard, semi-flexible cylindrical rod having a first handle and a second handle. The system features a soft, flexible noose member located on a cylindrical rod side wall. The system features an elastomeric linear fastening member. The system features a series of markings located on the rod side wall.

A device includes a receptacle body, wherein the receptacle body is filled with a dilatant fluid and the receptacle body extends in an elongated shape from a first end towards a second end, and a tension body for initiating an external force into the device, wherein a compression body, wherein the compression body is arranged in the receptacle body in a relatively movable manner and is connected to the tension body, wherein the compression body divides an interior space of the receptacle body into a first chamber and a second chamber, wherein between the receptacle body and the compression body a passage is provided, wherein the passage connects the first chamber with the second chamber fluid-technically.

A custom or pre-fabricated ankle foot orthosis provides tri-planar control of the ankle foot structure. The ankle foot orthosis includes a brace body made from a polyolefin elastomeric material, foam material and a closure mechanism.
