What Does a Rib Belt Do?

Rib belts are used to compress the rib cage, offering compression and extra support after an injury or medical condition. Employing firm compression and support, the Oppo Rib Belt prevents chest movement and reduces discomfort after fractures, strains or bruising.

Manage Pain During Recovery

Chest contractions and expansions are unavoidable, as they will always take place to some degree while we breathe and move. The Oppo Rib Belt helps to reduce the pain associated with these movements, as it prevents the injured area from experiencing a high degree of pressure. After an injury or operation, a rib support can drastically reduce pain and discomfort as you ease back into daily movement. 

Supple Design for Everyday Wear

Made from a combination of elastic and soft nylon, the Oppo Rib Belt is perfect for everyday wear or to help aid recovery. This helps ensure that even if you need long-term support, you can remain comfortable throughout your rehabilitation. 

How Comfortable Is the Oppo Rib Support?

The Oppo Rib Support features a contoured design for a more comfortable fit around the thoracic spine. It is made from a combination of elastic and soft nylon pile bonded to a 0.25-inch foam to enhance comfort, ensuring that the support moulds close to your body to even and uniform pressure.

Universal Sizing with Secure Fastening

With secure hook-and-loop fastenings that can be adjusted according to your body, the Oppo Belt comes in one universal size that will fit most users well despite varying rib circumference. The polyester-rubber composition allows for a good amount of stretch to apply even pressure whilst also guaranteeing a tailored fit.
