The Kyphosis Pad is made from foam with a soft interlock cover, and can be worn under the patient's clothing with the cut-out section placed over the spine. The Pad is kept in position by doing up the side sections around the patient's chest with the Hook & Loop Tape fastening. Wearing the Kyphosis Pad may divert pressure from the bony areas of the spine, easing discomfort and helping prevent pressure sores on the back.
