ABSTRACT:
A limited mobility shoulder brace limits abduction and external rotation of the shoulder to reduce the risk of dislocation and subluxation. However, the brace permits flexion, extension, horizontal adduction and horizontal abduction of the shoulder so as to facilitate the user's ability to effectively participate in most sporting activities. The brace includes an attachment assembly which is secured about the torso, and a connecting member that is secured about the arm and shiftably coupled with the assembly in such a manner that the assembly and member cooperatively provide the previously noted degrees of stabilization and mobility.
