Hip & Thigh Supports NZ

Hip and thigh supports are designed to help stabilise the hip joint, improve lower limb alignment and support movement during rehabilitation or everyday activities. These products are commonly used following injury, surgery, developmental conditions or when additional support is required to improve mobility and comfort.

Allied Medical’s Hip & Thigh range includes hip braces, abduction supports, orthotic systems and specialised paediatric solutions from trusted brands including Össur, Allard, Procare and Erimed.

Hip Braces for Stability and Recovery

Hip braces are designed to provide controlled support around the hip joint while allowing functional movement. They may be used following surgery, injury or when managing conditions that affect hip stability and mobility.

Products such as the Össur Unloader Hip Brace are designed to support the hip joint while helping users remain active during daily activities and rehabilitation programmes.

Hip braces can help:

  • Provide additional hip stability
  • Support rehabilitation and recovery
  • Improve confidence during movement
  • Assist with controlled joint positioning
  • Promote safer mobility during daily activities

Paediatric Hip and Thigh Orthoses

The collection also includes specialised paediatric products such as the Procare Pavlik Harness and Allard SWASH range. These products are designed to support hip positioning, alignment and movement control for children with specific clinical requirements.

The SWASH (Standing, Walking And Sitting Hip) system is widely recognised as a specialised orthotic solution designed to assist hip positioning during functional activities such as sitting, standing and walking. Associated components and accessories are also available within the range.

Hip Abduction and Positioning Supports

Hip abduction supports are designed to help maintain appropriate leg positioning and separation when clinically required. Products such as the AML Adjustable Hip Abductor provide adjustable positioning support and may be used as part of a broader seating, rehabilitation or post-operative management plan.

Correct positioning can play an important role in comfort, stability and long-term outcomes, particularly for individuals with complex mobility or postural support needs.

Choosing the Right Hip or Thigh Support

Selecting the right support depends on the condition being managed, the level of stability required and the recommendations of your healthcare team.

Consider:

  • Whether support is required for the hip, thigh or both
  • Post-operative or rehabilitation requirements
  • Paediatric versus adult applications
  • Mobility and activity goals
  • Required range of movement
  • Clinical recommendations and fitting requirements

Many specialised hip and thigh orthoses require professional assessment and fitting to ensure optimal performance and comfort.
