- Trauma or injury to the spine
Benefits of CTLSO
Wearing a CTLSO can provide numerous benefits, including:
- Reduced pain and discomfort
- Improved spinal alignment and stability

How is a CTLSO applied?
Applying a CTLSO typically requires a series of appointments with our experienced orthotists. During these appointments, we will:
- Conduct a thorough examination to determine the best course of treatment
- Take precise measurements of the patient’s spine and body shape
- Create a custom-made mold of the patient’s spine
- Fabricate the CTLSO using advanced technology and materials
- Provide instructions on how to properly wear, clean, and maintain the device
