The TogRite™ harness system is an advanced material with dynamic properties designed for therapeutic use.
It has a controlled stretch that can withstand a defined load, as well as pronounced elastic recovery properties that simulate the functioning of active muscles. The elasticity of the material enables a gradual and measured application of force, which is used to support and guide movements. The back coating of the belt system is latex-free and offers high elasticity, which not only ensures effective body adaptation, but also increases the hold on the skin or on the surface of clothing.
This feature minimizes the risk of slipping and ensures a constant therapeutic effect throughout the entire period of wear. These mechanical characteristics make TogRite™ particularly suitable to function as a type of external muscle in orthopedic and rehabilitative applications that supports and corrects movement sequences.
Indications and Applications
As a type of “muscle off the roll,” TogRite™ can enhance the effects of TheraTogs systems or allow the therapist to simulate the effects of similar splints or orthoses. The applications are designed to promote:
- Stabilization of the pelvis while sitting
- Postural alignment
- Rotation of the pelvis
- Correction of the shoulder and scapula position
- Support the abdominal muscles
- Support hip movement
- Supporting knee flexion or extension during the swing phase of walking
- Supporting foot elevation (ankle dorsiflexion)
Your advantages of using TogRite™ in the practice or at home
The outstanding recovery and regeneration properties of TogRite™ are proven by clinical experience and laboratory studies. The material does not suffer from expansion or loss of retraction and resistance to stretch - even after repeated use and numerous machine washes.
It has been observed that the same straps can be used daily for more than six months without losing elastic strength or adhesion.
Key features include:
- Consistent stretch and resilience
- Strong elasticity and resistance to stretching
- Securely integrated, elasticized silicone grip lining
- longevity
- versatility
- Machine washable (air dry)
- Supplied on rolls for tailored sizing and fit - including multiple tabs
