The posture correction collar is able to adjust a forward translation of the head of a hypothetical wearer relative to the shoulders. The collar comprises a first assembly having a support member shaped and dimensioned to wrap around at least a portion of the upper area of the body of the wearer. A second assembly is movable relative to the first assembly. The second assembly has a first adjustable mechanism to progressively and incrementally move relative to the first support assembly and a second adjustable mechanism to engage a portion of the head of the wearer. The first and second adjustable mechanisms are used to correct the posture of the wearer by promoting progressive and incremental movements of the head relative to the shoulders to achieve an anatomically desired condition.

Provided is a wrist guard designed to press the radial and ulnar parts of a wrist toward the center of the wrist by means of a compression pad, so as to prevent side effects, such as hand numbness and swelling and effectively provide a fixing force of the wrist, thereby preventing the wrist from being excessively bent and alleviating wrist pain. The wrist guard allows a user to adjust the pressure load on the radial and ulnar parts of the wrist. It is possible to smoothly insert and assemble the pressing member into a coupling body, therefore improving operational feeling, the wrist guard may be stably used, and damage due to interference can be prevented. A stable pulling operation prevents wear and damage. As an excessive pressure load on the radial and ulnar regions is attenuated, the wrist guard is more convenient and comfortable.

Ear compression apparatus including an ear compression band having a substantially circular shape. The ear compression band can have a circumferential length and a compression band operably coupled with at least one-half (½) of the circumferential length of the ear compression band. The compression band can be coupled with less than nineteen-twentieths ( 19/20) of the circumferential length of the ear compression band, thereby forming a front portion of the circumferential length not having a compression band coupled therewith. Mittens having similar characteristics.

A compression garment comprises an elongated stretchable sleeve (1) which is adapted to be worn over a body part and a compression part (2) connected to the elongated stretchable sleeve (1). The garment has at least one closing part (3) for fixing the compression part (2) in a stretched state. Furthermore, the compression part (2) is shaped and sized to be wrapped around the circumference of the elongated stretchable sleeve (1), wherein the compression part (2) is adapted for positioning proximate to an outer surface of the elongated stretchable sleeve (1).

Apparatus and methods for adjusting a support to a body are described in which a portable support assembly may be worn or used by a bed-stricken or wheel-chair restricted individual around particular regions of the body where pressure ulcers tend to form. The portable support assembly may generally include adjustable supports which conform the assembly to the patient's body and which also help to distribute one or more fluid pad assemblies relative to the body. The support assembly may be incorporated into a design for a wheelchair or a bed.

Systems, methods, and devices are described for providing a brace having an inflation control. The control directs fluid flow from an inflation component to one or more inflatable cells of the brace. The inflatable cells are independently inflated and deflated by the inflation component through the control. The control allows a user to create a fluid path between the inflation component and one of the inflatable cells by positioning the control in an orientation corresponding to the desired inflatable cells. Each inflatable cell is independently inflated and deflated in various orientations of the control.
