Treatment for pars fracture (spondylolysis) usually involves rest and bracing to stabilise the spine. Though in more severe cases, surgery may be needed.
If a pars fracture is not properly diagnosed and treated, it can get worse and lead to more serious conditions like spondylolisthesis, where a vertebra slips out of place.
The aim of a bespoke spinal brace, like the LOC Pars Fracture Brace, is to:
Early diagnosis and prompt bracing can significantly shorten recovery time from the normal six months to as little as three months.
We’ve been treating pars fractures with braces for three years and our success rates are above average. What’s more, none of our pars fracture patients have gone on to require surgery.
Diagnosing a pars fracture early and using a brace can reduce recovery time from the typical six months to as little as three months.
Designed to be slim and lightweight, our brace is less bulky than conventional options, allowing patients to continue daily activities with minimal restriction.
We use our 3D scanning app to take an impression of your torso and lower spine, so no more plaster casting. Making appointments quicker, easier and more comfortable for patients.
Straps at the front of the brace mean that patients can put it on and take it off by themselves.
Our on-site workshop facilities mean that clinicians can make any necessary adjustments or tweaks to your pars fracture brace to make sure it’s comfortable and working optimally.
After the initial appointment, one of our specialist clinicians will take the necessary 3D scans and measurements of your lower back. We will then design, model and manufacture your bespoke brace in-house.
One of our specialist clinicians will then fit the brace and check if any adjustments are needed. Typically, these braces are used alongside rest for three or six months (your consultant will direct the time scales).
We offer a same-day brace fitting service for patients who need a brace fitted quickly. Same-day patients are assessed in the morning and will have a bespoke brace fitted in the afternoon.
This same-day service is only available at our Kingston clinic.
We’re committed to always being as transparent as possible with our treatment costs. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Please note that if you choose our express, same-day fitting service at our Kingston clinic, there is an additional cost of £231.
We believe in the power of bespoke orthotics to change lives. That’s why we’re committed to providing the best possible treatments for our patients.
We’re happy to answer any questions you might have, with no commitment to proceed with treatment.
