Erixthree Neuro Shoulder Brace – Dynamic Glenohumeral Support for Shoulder Subluxation & Post-Stroke Arm

The ErixThree® Neuro Shoulder Brace has been specifically developed for patients with glenohumeral subluxation — where the humeral head (upper arm bone) partially or fully slips out of the glenoid socket due to muscle weakness or paralysis. This is most commonly seen following stroke (hemiplegic shoulder), spinal cord injury, brain injury, and other neurological conditions causing upper limb weakness. The brace dynamically lifts and supports the shoulder joint in its correct anatomical position, reducing pain, preventing further joint damage, and supporting rehabilitation. Available in XSmall through to XLarge in both Left and Right configurations.

• Dynamic glenohumeral support — lifts and holds the shoulder joint in position
• Designed for subluxation from stroke, neurological, and neuromuscular conditions
• Reduces shoulder pain and prevents further joint degeneration
• Available in XSmall, Small, Medium, Large, XLarge — Left and Right
• ErixThree® — clinically designed neurological rehab brace

Frequently Asked Questions

What is shoulder subluxation and why does it occur after stroke?

Shoulder subluxation is the partial displacement of the humeral head from the glenoid socket. After stroke, the muscles supporting the shoulder joint (particularly the supraspinatus and deltoid) may be weakened or paralysed. Without active muscle support, gravity pulls the arm down, causing the humeral head to slide downward out of the socket — causing pain, swelling, and potential nerve and soft tissue damage. ErixThree is specifically designed to provide the external support these muscles can no longer provide.

How does the ErixThree Brace support the shoulder?

The ErixThree uses a dynamic suspension system that lifts the arm from below and supports the shoulder from above — counteracting the gravitational pull that causes subluxation. Unlike rigid braces that restrict movement, the dynamic design allows appropriate movement range while maintaining glenohumeral joint integrity. It is designed for wear during therapy, activity, and daily life.

How do I choose the correct size and side?

Select the side (Left or Right) based on the affected arm — the brace is side-specific. Size is based on measurements of the arm circumference and shoulder width. Refer to the ErixThree sizing guide — correct sizing is essential for effective subluxation support. When in doubt, consult your physiotherapist or occupational therapist for fitting guidance.

Can the ErixThree be used during physiotherapy rehabilitation?

Yes. The ErixThree is designed to be worn during physiotherapy sessions and daily activities as part of neurological rehabilitation. It protects the shoulder during therapy, allows therapists to work on arm function while the joint is properly supported, and reduces pain during movement — creating a better environment for rehabilitation.

Can the ErixThree be used for non-neurological shoulder instability?

While designed primarily for neurological subluxation, it can be used for other forms of glenohumeral instability. However, for traumatic shoulder instability or dislocation-related subluxation, consult your physiotherapist or orthopaedic specialist about the most appropriate brace — there are different designs for different causes of instability.
