Waco Bone and Joint has trained and experienced personnel to correctly brace and splint musculoskeletal injuries in keeping with the physician’s recommendations. Our physicians actively supervise the bracing and splinting process to ensure correct technique and proper application. Bracing is generally used to maintain a fracture while allowing adjacent joints the freedom for movement. Splinting is used to immobilize and maintain a particular position of a bone or joint. The splints are secured with elastic bandages.
