What is a TLSO?
A TLSO is a type of orthotic device that covers the thoracic, lumbar, and sacral regions of the spine. It is typically used to provide stabilization and support to individuals with conditions such as:
- Spinal fractures or osteoporosis
- Herniated discs or spinal stenosis
- Scoliosis or kyphosis
- Spinal tumors or metastatic disease
- Post-operative support after spinal surgery
How does a TLSO work?
A TLSO works by applying gentle, consistent pressure to the spine to:
- Reduce pain and discomfort
- Improve posture and alignment
- Stabilize the spine and prevent further injury
- Enhance overall comfort and mobility

Our TLSO orthotics are designed to be customized to each individual’s specific needs. We offer a range of options, including:
- Rigid TLSO: Provides maximum stability and support for individuals with severe spinal instability or deformity.
- Semi-rigid TLSO: Offers a balance of support and flexibility for individuals with mild to moderate spinal conditions.
- Soft TLSO: Provides a gentle, comfortable fit for individuals who require minimal support or have sensitive skin.
Benefits of TLSO Orthotics
