Types of fractures
Our team of Physiotherapists and Chiropractors can check your fracture and let you know the best way to get it better.
We can help fit the right product to heal your fracture properly.
CAM Moon Boots
Controlled Ankle Motion (CAM) boots, also known as moon boots, are a simple way to help foot and ankle fractures heal. These can often be used instead of casting the foot and allow you to walk on them. We have a range of budget to premium options, and can fit and teach you how to use them.
Fibreglass Casts
Using casting for fractures is the traditional way of healing fractures. Acute swollen fractures often require a plaster back slab first, then as the swelling reduces the use of fibreglass cast. These need to be removed with a plaster saw afterward. We stock a different colours and waterproof types.
EXOS Casts
EXOS casts are a new way of managing upper limb fractures, and feel more like a strong wrist brace that a cast. These are comfortable, secure, waterproof and can be used for many hand and wrist injuries. They don't require any messy fibreglass and can be easily removed without a plaster saw.
Braces and Splints
Many fractures require the use of a supportive brace or splint to help them heal. Our team can help you choose the right brace or splint depending on your injury type and what you'll need to do with it whilst it is on.
Slings
Fractures of the collarbone, shoulder, and arm really benefit from being held in a sling whilst they recover. Some chemists do stock basic slings, but we stock high quality slings that are comfortable and adjustable to you.
Crutches
Getting crutches can be really tricky, especially when you need them and can't walk! Instead of going into every chemist, you can pick up some crutches from our clinic, where we can make sure they're the right size and fitted.
