Enhancing Recovery with Shoulder Braces

Experience the unmatched quality of our German-engineered Bauerfeind braces, crafted to fortify the shoulder joint and guide it securely during every movement. The compression applied by these braces aids in healing, while the adjustable straps limit excessive motion during recovery, ensuring robust support for your shoulder. Embrace enhanced mobility with our OmoTrain brace, specifically designed to foster the correct movement and hasten the restoration of shoulder functions.
Shoulder braces play a vital role in stabilizing, aiding, or limiting the shoulder’s movement post-injury or surgery. Correct measurement is key to effective support, ensuring a snug yet comfortable fit.
At Care-Med, we prioritize your comfort and recovery. We’ll personally order and ensure your brace fits perfectly before you collect it, with most orders available for next-day pickup.
Impact of Shoulder Pain
Shoulder pain can stem from various sources, significantly affecting your daily life. The primary causes include:
- Traumatic Injury: Such injuries often lead to swelling and bruising, particularly around the joint area.
- Inflammation: Commonly seen in conditions like rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, inflammation can cause significant discomfort in the shoulder.
- Arthritis: This condition can lead to chronic pain and limited mobility.
In some instances, the exact cause of shoulder pain might be elusive. However, most cases see notable improvement with non-surgical interventions, such as using a shoulder brace for support and stability.
Different activities and conditions can exacerbate shoulder pain, including:
- Tennis: Repeated elbow stress can lead to arthritis in the shoulder.
- Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Characterized by tingling, numbness, or pain in the hand, wrist, or arm, this syndrome can indirectly affect the shoulder due to altered movement patterns.
- Muscle Spasms: Often intense and painful, these spasms in the shoulder area can arise from work-related injuries, carpal tunnel syndrome, or general stress.
- Shoulder Dupuytren’s Contracture: This involves an abnormal narrowing of tendons in the forearm, potentially leading to tightness in the shoulder. While the exact cause is unknown, early treatment can help prevent further issues.
Understanding these causes and their effects is the first step towards effective management and relief of shoulder pain.

- Nerve Palsy
Bauerfeind’s OmoTrain braces have a unique design that guides and centers the arm in the socket so the shoulder maintains proper natural movement without impacting mobility. The support is easy to put on and take off thanks to its high elasticity, and it is secured to your upper body with a soft strap.
For Neuromuscular Stabilization of the Shoulder Joint
OmoTrain® S
The Bauerfeind OmoTrain S brace provides secure support for the shoulder joint and strongly promotes mobility in order to restore function. During each movement, the compression knit and a removable massage pad (Delta pad) massage the soft tissue, thereby relieving pain, and activate the musculature that stabilizes the joint.
Thanks to its direct strap system, the brace participates in every movement and is extremely quick and easy to put on. It is therefore particularly suitable for use in pain therapy, for immediate care for injuries, and for protection against further injuries.

Functional Stabilizing Orthosis
SecuTec® Omo
SecuTec Omo uses a joint splint to fix the bent arm on an abdominal strap at an adjustable angle of up to 60°. Thus the orthosis prevents painful movements and takes weight off the shoulder. The user-friendly design of the orthosis facilitates personal hygiene and wound care, while easy release of the joint helps you to start gentle physiotherapy at an early stage.
- Fixes the shoulder in an ideal position for recovery
- Early mobilization through controlled arm movement
- Causes no tension since there is no shoulder strap
SecuTec Omo prevents painful movements and takes the weight of the arm off your shoulder. Thanks to its user-friendly design, you won’t need a shoulder strap. This prevents you from adopting a posture to help relieve pain as well as tension in the healthy shoulder and the neck. An extending hand support helps relieve the wrist. The orthosis can be put on from the side, preventing unnecessary pain.
