                      FEATURES OF THE R&M BRACE

                      The brace is quick and easy to apply
                      And it is also easy to remove

                      Use of the brace limits unintended aggravating movements; it allows movement within a 'safe', non-provocative zone. The arm may be moved without fear of provoking a sustained symptom reaction.  

                      The brace allows normal use of the arm while protecting it from aggravating movements

                      It therefore allows more use of the arm rather than less

                      It uses hypoallergenic glue water based pressure sensitive adhesive designed for prolonged adhesion to the skin.
                      It has no latex or rubber components

                      The adhesion of the shoulder patch will last 2-3 days
                      The usefulness of the brace will be evident within two days
