Shoulder Harness, Front or Rear Pull BodyPoint

Front or Rear-Pull Shoulder Harnesses offer maximum trunk support. The patented Laminar Pad construction distributes pressure broadly across the shoulders and the sternum.

The goal of the anterior trunk support is to extend the trunk and retract the scapulas, reducing the kyphosis. This aligns the trunk over the pelvis, improves respiratory capacity, increases safe swallow, increases head control, maintains a good visual field, and improves overall pressure distribution. If the individual is capable of active trunk extension, dynamics strapping may allow more anterior movement for functional reach, while still providing stability and improver posture.

A high strength padded should harness with the option of front or rear pull adjustment. Available with dynamics strap option to allow forward reach if desired.

Suitable for clients with Trunk Kyphosis: • Forward flexion of the upper trunk, usually thoracic area • Lumbar flexion, commonly with posterior pelvic tilt • Shoulders protracted • Little contact with the back • Individual may have to hyperextend neck to see straight ahead
