What It Is

A clear guide to how bracing costs are covered under ICBC, WorkSafeBC, and most extended health insurance plans.

The right support for
your recovery.

Professional brace fitting goes far beyond picking a size off a shelf. Our practitioners assess the specific biomechanical demands of your injury, the stage of your healing, and your activity level to select and fit the optimal bracing solution. A properly fitted brace protects healing tissue, controls harmful movement, and provides confidence during recovery.

We carry a range of clinical-grade braces for knees, ankles, wrists, elbows, shoulders, and the spine. Each fitting includes a detailed assessment, precise sizing and adjustment, education on proper use and wear schedule, and integration with your overall rehabilitation plan so the brace supports — rather than replaces — your recovery.

When It’s Used

Conditions that respond to
this treatment.

ACL & Ligament Injuries

Hinged knee braces control rotational and lateral forces while allowing safe flexion and extension during ligament healing or post-surgical recovery.

Ankle Sprains

Stirrup or lace-up braces stabilize the ankle joint, protecting against re-injury during the vulnerable healing window and return to activity.

Patellofemoral Pain

Patellar stabilizing braces guide kneecap tracking, reducing pain during squatting, stairs, and prolonged sitting.

Spinal Support

Lumbar and thoracic braces provide external stabilization after spinal injury or surgery, reducing pain and supporting proper posture during healing.

Post-Surgical Immobilization

Controlled-motion braces (like ROM knee braces) protect surgical repairs while allowing graduated movement per your surgeon’s protocol.

Wrist & Elbow Conditions

Carpal tunnel splints, tennis elbow straps, and wrist stabilizers that offload injured structures while allowing functional use.

What To Expect

Your brace
fitting.

Your practitioner will assess your injury, range of motion, and stability to determine the right type of brace. Precise measurements are taken to ensure optimal fit — a brace that’s too loose won’t protect, and one that’s too tight can impair circulation and healing.

You’ll receive hands-on education on how to apply, adjust, and care for your brace, along with a clear wear schedule. As your recovery progresses, your brace may be adjusted or stepped down. The goal is always to support healing while working toward independence from the brace.
