Orthopedics: Medical Instruments

An orthopaedic mattress is a mattress intended to support the joints, back and complete body. As its name advocates, an orthopedic mattress has been influenced by the medical study of Orthopedics which emphases on disorders or defects of the spine and joints. Orthopaedic mattresses have, therefore, been created to combat the problems one might experience with a bad back or joints by providing a firm mattress which suggests targeted, tailored support. Orthopedic shoes are particularly designed shoes that provide support and pain relief for people suffering with some type of pain in the legs, ankles, or feet. The main function of orthopedic shoes is to provide more care for the feet and ankles than is accomplished by simple footwear.
