Soft & elastic braces are the most common bracing & support products in orthopedics. They are easy to use, flexible, provide unrestricted patient mobility, and are highly customizable, as compared to other surgical alternatives. The large share of this segment is attributed to the growing availability of advanced products, increasing adoption & patient preference for orthopedic braces in post-operative & preventive care, and the supportive reimbursement scenario for target products across mature markets.
Pharmacies & retailers offer orthopedic bracing and support products for preventive care, post-operative rehabilitation, fracture recovery, and physiotherapy.
