Dynamic splints that aid in restoring physical function to patients w/joint stiffness/limited ROM
Dynasplint Systems, Inc., the pioneer and market leader in dynamic splinting since 1981, aids in restoring physical function and more importantly, quality of life, to patients with joint stiffness and limited range of motion caused by injury, trauma, surgery or disease.
The key to its effectiveness is the low-load, prolonged-duration stretch (LLPS) technology that delivers a correct biological stimulus to create a permanent length change in shortened connective tissue. Dynasplint® Systems are simple, yet reliable in design and function. Developed for home use, they are an ideal adjunct to doctors’ and therapists’ standard protocols.
Experience, Reliability, Knowledge, Service, Support – Results.
Interview Q&A
How long have you been in business?
Dynasplint Systems, Inc., the pioneer and market leader in dynamic splinting since 1981, has helped more than three-quarters of a million patients restore range of motion.
What is your primary product or service?
The Dynasplint Systems are bilateral, spring-loaded tensioning devices that help to increase joint range of motion (ROM) to patients experiencing ROM deficits due to shortened connective tissue. They are available in extension and flexion and for almost every joint of the body.
How did you first become interested in your line of business? (if owner) - What is your background? (If owner or store manager)
In 1974 Baltimore native George R. Hepburn, PT, launched his practice as a physical therapist. As he spent several sessions per week, he began to see a need for change and a better way to treat a common condition in the field of rehabilitative therapy called "contracture." A contracture can be the result of an injury, illness, or surgery and occurs when a joint becomes stiff and loses its range of motion.
On a Friday evening in June 1979, George R. Hepburn, P.T. took pen in hand and from a great idea created an incredible company…Dynasplint Systems, Inc. Based on seven years of clinical experience working in an acute general hospital, private physical therapy practice and nursing home settings, George envisioned a tremendous need for a sophisticated dynamic splinting system to treat the widespread problem of joint stiffness and contractures seen in nearly every clinical setting involved in rehabilitative medicine.
