Whether you’re on the job or participating in sports or recreational activities, the possibility of dislocating a joint and fracturing or breaking a bone is always there. "The Body Band” can assist in immobilizing the injured area and surrounding joint (foot, leg, arm, hand, etc.) helping to possibly prevent further injury.
*Tight Criss-Cross Wrapping Motion*
"The Body Band” is rolled to fit the injured area. The excess material is rolled in such a fashion that it creates a temporary splint helping provide support to the injured area. In addition, the ice and compression of "The Body Band” helps to reduce inflammation encouraging less pain and faster healing.
* After application, wait for help and get to a hospital as soon as possible.
You are encouraged to consult your physician regarding the application and use of "The Body Band” on your specific injury. Always remember, if pain persists, consult your physician. |
