Role of REVIVA external breast prostheses in posture balance after a mastectomy

Role of REVIVA external breast prostheses in posture balance after a mastectomy

Here’s how they contribute to posture balance:

1. Restoring Symmetry: After the removal of one or both breasts, the body’s natural symmetry is altered. This imbalance can cause the spine to curve or tilt to one side or front. Wearing REVIVA breast prosthesis helps restore this balance, aligning the shoulders and spine more evenly.

2. Even Weight Distribution: The absence of breast on one side can lead to an uneven distribution of weight, causing one side of the body to carry more load than the other. REVIVA breast prosthesis can counteract this by providing a balanced weight distribution, reducing the risk of developing musculoskeletal issues.

4. Preventing Spinal mis-alignment: Prolonged imbalance can lead to spinal misalignment, which can cause chronic pain and mobility issues. REVIVA breast prosthesis helps maintain proper spinal alignment, supporting overall posture and reducing the likelihood of long-term complications.

5. Improving Gait: An uneven gait can develop when one side of the body is lighter or less stable than the other. Wearing REVIVA prosthesis helps stabilize the body, promoting a more natural and balanced way of walking.

6. Alleviating Compensatory Behaviours: Post mastectomy surgery, without a breast, one may develop compensatory behaviours, such as leaning to one side or hunching due to consciousness. Over time, these behaviours can negatively impact posture and lead to discomfort. Using REVIVA breast prosthesis helps prevent these behaviours.
