ABSTRACT:
The shoulder brace of the present invention limits motion of the shoulder. The brace is comprised of a body belt, two arm belts and a resilient belt. The body belt is fastened about the torso. The first arm belt attaches about the upper arm while the second arm belt attaches about the fore arm. The resilient belt has a first end and a second end. The first end is attached to the body belt. Means are provided for connecting the second end of the resilient belt to the first arm belt and the second arm belt. Thus the resilient belt provides feedback when movement of the arm away from the torso is approaching the limit of movement permitted by the brace. If adjustment means to the resilient belt, such as a buckle, are provided it is possible to vary the range of permitted movement of the arm with respect to the torso.
