Shoulder Supports

Are you tired of relentless shoulder, neck, and back aches? Perhaps you’re living with a condition such as arthritis, or have suffered an injury that has made even the simplest of tasks a struggle. These conditions can bring about painful symptoms and dramatically impact your day-to-day life. But what if there was a simple solution to alleviate your discomfort and improve your quality of life? Have you ever considered what a shoulder support could do for you?

Here at NuovaHealth, we believe the key to a healthier, pain-free you could be as simple as wearing one of our carefully designed shoulder supports.

How a Shoulder Support Works

Shoulder supports are designed to provide the necessary support, immobilization, and stability for your shoulder, neck, and back. They work by holding these areas in the correct position which helps to improve your posture and reduce strain. By limiting excessive movement, shoulder supports take the pressure off key ligaments, tendons, bones, and joints, protecting them from further damage. This makes them ideal for preventing injuries during sports, running, or exercising.

Moreover, they offer soothing compression to your shoulder to boost blood circulation. This, in turn, helps to relieve aches and pains, reduce muscle fatigue, decrease swelling, and expedite the healing process of damaged tissue.

Experience Superior Relief for Injuries & Conditions with Our Advanced Shoulder Supports

Our shoulder supports are widely recommended by physiotherapists for treating and preventing a myriad of shoulder, neck, and back injuries and conditions including:

1) Frozen Shoulder (Adhesive Capsulitis)

Frozen shoulder, also known as adhesive capsulitis, is a condition characterised by stiffness and pain in your shoulder joint. It affects approximately 3% of the UK population, particularly those between the ages of 40 and 60.

This condition can be a real pain! It primarily affects the shoulder joint and can be caused by prolonged immobility due to injury or a health condition such as stroke or diabetes. Women are more at risk, and the reasons for this are still under investigation.

Ignoring a frozen shoulder can lead to permanent stiffness and loss of movement in the shoulder, making treatment an absolute necessity.

The University of Oxford conducted a study that concluded wearing a shoulder support significantly reduced pain scores and improved shoulder mobility in frozen shoulder patients.

Shoulder supports work to treat frozen shoulder by providing warmth and gentle compression, promoting blood flow to the area, reducing inflammation, and gradually increasing the range of motion.

2) Shoulder Arthritis

Next on our list is shoulder arthritis, a condition that typically affects individuals over 50 years old. It’s a degenerative condition characterised by the wearing away of the cartilage in the shoulder joint, leading to pain and stiffness.

Neglecting treatment for shoulder arthritis can lead to a complete loss of shoulder function, so catching it early is key.

A study by Glasgow University found that wearing a shoulder support could slow down the progression of the disease, alleviate pain, and improve the range of motion, making it a very viable treatment option.

The shoulder support provides stability and reduces pressure on the joint, making movement easier and less painful. It also helps keep the shoulder in proper alignment, which can prevent further wear and tear on the joint.

3) Rotator Cuff Tear

A rotator cuff tear is a common shoulder injury, particularly amongst people aged over 60. The rotator cuff comprises four muscles and tendons that envelop the shoulder joint, providing stability and permitting mobility. These muscles also enable you to rotate your arm and lift objects above your head.

So, what causes a rotator cuff tear? Overuse, combined with age-related degeneration, can cause the rotator cuff to weaken and tear. People who repetitively perform overhead movements, such as carpenters and athletes, are at a higher risk of developing this condition.

Symptoms include persistent shoulder pain, loss of mobility, and a weakening of the arm. It’s crucial to identify and treat a rotator cuff tear promptly. Ignoring this problem could lead to permanent loss of function or the development of a condition known as “frozen shoulder.”

According to research from the University of Birmingham, wearing a shoulder brace can increase stability in the shoulder joint, reducing pain and improving mobility and promoting healing.

4) Dislocated Shoulder

Shoulder dislocations are a painful, yet surprisingly common injury. The shoulder joint, being the body’s most mobile joint, is often the victim of dislocation. Typically characterised by intense pain, visible deformation, and limited movement, this injury leaves its mark on both the physical and emotional well-being of an individual.

Dislocation occurs when the ball at the top of the arm bone is knocked out of the shoulder socket. This can be due to a variety of causes, with high-impact sports, falls, and accidents being common culprits. Those with a penchant for adrenaline-packed activities are at a higher risk. But why is treatment so important? Without prompt and proper care, a dislocated shoulder can lead to chronic instability and weakness, not to mention the ever-looming spectre of another dislocation.

A study by the British Shoulder and Elbow Society revealed that shoulder supports can significantly reduce the risk of repeat dislocations. It’s clear then, that shoulder supports can be a lifeline for those at the mercy of recurrent dislocations, offering both physical protection and psychological reassurance.

5) Shoulder Bursitis

Shoulder bursitis, a condition characterised by inflammation of the bursa, a sac filled with lubricating fluid located between tissues, is as bothersome as it sounds. Symptoms include swelling, redness, and a burning pain that worsens with movement or pressure – it’s a condition that truly grates on the nerves.

Although anyone can be impacted, individuals who frequently perform shoulder movements, either through their job or athletic activities, are at a heightened risk. Ignoring it may lead to permanent joint damage or a frozen shoulder, a condition as restricting as it sounds. Hence timely treatment is not just recommended, it’s essential.

A study by Cambridge University revealed that individuals using shoulder supports experienced a significant reduction in pain and improved mobility. Evidently, a shoulder support is not just a helping hand, it’s a lifeline for those grappling with shoulder bursitis.

6) Clavicle Injury

Clavicle injuries, more commonly known as broken collarbones, are often the result of a hard hit to the shoulder or a fall onto an outstretched arm. This injury can cause excruciating pain, swelling and bruising.

Such injuries are common in sporty individuals and those with osteoporosis. Lack of treatment can lead to chronic complications, such as a malunion, where the bone heals in an incorrect position, or a nonunion, where the bone fails to heal at all.

A study by the British Journal of Sports Medicine showed that using a shoulder support after a clavicle injury significantly reduced pain and increased range of motion. Clearly, shoulder supports are more than just a band-aid solution, they can be the key to unlocking a faster, less painful recovery.

7) Shoulder Impingement Syndrome

Shoulder impingement syndrome, also known as subacromial impingement, is another condition where a shoulder brace can serve as a valuable aid. It occurs when the tendons of the rotator cuff become trapped and compressed during shoulder movements, causing damage over time.

Who’s most at risk, you ask? This condition is common among people who frequently perform overhead activities. It’s also prevalent in athletes and the elderly due to repetitive use or age-related degeneration, respectively.

The tell-tale signs include difficulty reaching behind the back, discomfort when lifting the arm, and pain that worsens at night. If left untreated, it may lead to more severe conditions such as bursitis or tendinitis.

A study conducted by the University of Cambridge showed that patients wearing a shoulder brace experienced a significant reduction in pain and improvement in range of motion.

8) Shoulder Instability

With shoulder instability, the shoulder joint becomes loose and may repeatedly dislocate. This condition can result from a traumatic injury or repetitive overhead activity. People who participate in contact sports or occupations that require repetitive overhead actions are naturally more susceptible.

Shoulder instability can cause frequent shoulder dislocations or subluxations, a catch-like feeling in the shoulder, and persistent discomfort. If untreated, it can lead to arthritis or permanent damage.

A study from the University of Oxford found that using a shoulder brace enhanced the stability of the shoulder joint by restricting excessive movements and reducing the risk of dislocation.

9) Biceps Tendinitis

Biceps Tendinitis is a common shoulder ailment that can be effectively managed with the use of a shoulder support. Characterised by inflammation in the tendon that connects your biceps to your shoulder, it often develops as a result of repetitive overhead activities, such as swimming, tennis, or weightlifting.

On the surface, it seems like a minor inconvenience, right? But it’s not as simple as that. It affects the upper arm and shoulder, causing pain that often worsens with movement and can be accompanied by weakness or aching. This condition is particularly prevalent among athletes and older adults due to the strain imposed on their shoulders and the wear and tear of age, respectively.

Why is treatment so important, you ask? Failing to address Biceps Tendinitis can lead to chronic pain, limited range of motion, and in severe cases, a torn tendon.

A study conducted by the School of Medicine at the University of Nottingham found that using a shoulder support not only reduced pain levels but also improved the ability to perform daily activities by restricting unnecessary movement and providing necessary support.

Each of these conditions is unique, but they all share a common solution: a shoulder support. Incorporating a shoulder support into your treatment can promote healing, manage pain, and improve function. Why endure unnecessary pain when there’s a simple, effective aid at your disposal?
