Foam model of the physio-logic™ brace. After the anthropometrical data (circumferential and longitudinal trunk measurements) are recorded, the foam model is milled from a blank hard foam block. This hard foam model is wrapped in a heated PE-plate, which is vacuumed to the models surface. The brace parts are cut from the PE-model and adjusted to the patient. The physio-logic™ brace is manufactured by Orthomed OT Services, Bad Sobernheim, Germany.
