ActivArmor Cast Colors

Immobilizing casts and medical devices are tools meant to help heal. Unfortunately, for many patients especially young ones, these tools can be restrictive physically and, importantly, personally. 

Some who wear traditional fiberglass casts or other drab medical devices report feeling unenthused or even disliking their devices. Having casts that are colorful can help increase self-expression for those who need these devices. 

ActivArmor allows doctors to customize casts and medical devices fully and allows patients to express themselves and own their casts as extensions rather than hindrances.

The Benefit of Colorful Casts 

Colorful casts, like the ones found at ActivArmor, aren’t just pretty to look at. Studies have shown that casts that allow for self-expression increase adherence to the medical device by a patient and they also increase integration into daily life. 

Basically, a colorful cast can help a patient use their medical device more, increasing its health benefits. They can also help a patient feel more confident in everyday activities, increasing how often they engage in those activities. This is important because it is known that increasing activity can help heal bones.
