Full Description

The Balto® Joint is an excellent remedy for dogs experiencing discomfort or restricted movement after sustaining injuries to the carpal (wrist) joint. This ventilated compression bandage, constructed from non-neoprene fabric, offers stability and assistance to your canine's hind limbs while maintaining their innate range of motion.  This wrist brace for canines is a superb choice for dogs, particularly senior pets, who want extra assistance while maintaining an active way of life.

BRACE APPLICATIONS

• Sprains and strains of the front limb
• Structural support for soft tissue injuries to the carpal joint
• Chronic front limb soreness and pain management
• Complementary treatment option to physical therapy – can be used in combination with hydrotherapy and acupuncture
• This brace can be used on healthy joints, muscles and ligaments to prevent injury and provide structural support.
• Wound management; protection of bandages from biting, licking, gravity and friction

BRACE FEATURES

• Two airplane aluminum splints – medial and lateral that are slightly malleable for a more custom fit.
• The brace can also be used without splints for conditions such as arthritis and arthrosis.
  • Compression helps increase blood flow in the affected area, which helps reduce stiffness, pain, and inflammation
• Adjustable upper and lower padding straps can be lengthened or shortened on the leg to ensure an excellent fit

Instead of neoprene, which is known to harbour bacteria, offer insufficient support, and wear out rapidly - all Balto® braces are crafted from high-quality, non-neoprene materials. Various sizes guarantee a snug fit. Specially designed to avoid pinching.

Recommended for all ages unless otherwise advised by veterinarians. For essential bracing in pets younger than two, use a brace for balanced intervals of time to avoid potential growth disruptions.
