Postural taping and braces following osteoporotic vertebral fracture
Palmer, Shea
Authors
Abstract
Introduction: This article relates to the use of postural taping and braces for stable osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs) where treatment aims might include pain relief and postural re-education. Normally, such techniques or devices will allow some movement, are used intermittently and form just one part of a more complex conservative management package which will include education and exercise. Postural taping may initially be applied by a health professional and, if it proves helpful, carers may then be taught to do so. A range of over-the-counter postural taping and bracing devices are also widely available. More specialist devices may be tailored and fitted by orthotic services for acute or unstable OVFs but will not be discussed in detail in this article.
