Overview

The right brace, prescribed for the right job.

Braces work — when they’re the right brace for the right joint, fit to your body, and used as part of a broader plan. They fail when they’re off-the-shelf, wrong type, or sold instead of prescribed.

Our clinicians assess the joint, decide what kind of bracing makes sense (or whether it does), order through reputable manufacturers, and fit and follow up on every device.

Types of bracing

What we fit.

KNEE · FUNCTIONAL

ACL / ligament-deficient bracing

For return to sport with an ACL-deficient knee, or after ligament reconstruction. Custom-fit, high-performance hinged bracing.

KNEE · UNLOADER

Knee osteoarthritis

Custom unloader braces redistribute load away from a worn joint compartment. Effective for medial- and lateral-compartment OA.

KNEE · POST-OP

Post-surgical knee bracing

Range-of-motion controlled bracing for the early weeks after ACL, meniscus, or osteotomy procedures.

ANKLE

Ankle stability bracing

Lace-up and rigid hinged braces for chronic ankle instability, post-sprain, or return to cutting sport.

SHOULDER

Shoulder & AC joint bracing

Post-stabilization and AC-joint braces for athletes returning to contact and overhead sports.

WRIST & HAND

Wrist & thumb braces

Off-the-shelf and custom-fit braces for sprains, post-surgical immobilization, and DeQuervain’s.

How fitting works

Assessment, measurement, fit, follow-up.

  • Clinical assessment by physiotherapist or chiropractor.
  • Measurement or scan, depending on brace type.
  • Ordering through reputable manufacturers — DonJoy, Breg, OPTP, Bauerfeind, and others.
  • 1–2 week turnaround for most custom braces.
  • 30-minute fitting and break-in instructions.
  • 6-week follow-up and adjustments included.

Common questions

About custom bracing.

Is bracing covered by insurance?
Yes — most extended-health plans cover custom orthotic bracing. Auto and WSIB claims often do as well. We confirm coverage before you commit.
How much does a custom brace cost?
$300–$1,500 depending on joint and complexity. Knee unloader braces are at the upper end; ankle braces and post-op knee braces are typically much less.
Will I need it forever?
Usually no. For ACL deficiency, the brace supports return to high-risk activity. For OA, it’s an ongoing tool. Post-op braces are temporary by design.
Can I get a brace without an Omega visit?
A clinical assessment is required for proper bracing — we’ll work with your existing physio or surgeon’s prescription where appropriate.
