|
NeoAlly
|
|
Primary purpose
|
Whole-body mobility conditioning and active rehabilitation. Veterinarian recommended.
|
Basic support, protection, stabilization, or splinting of a selected limb. Not Veterinarian recommended
|
|
How it works
|
Dynamic textile forces support the core and engage limbs through resistance and recoil
|
Flexible material and optional stays provide localized support or restriction. Could lead to weakening of area.
|
|
Area supported
|
Trunk, hips, and selected limbs
|
Selected forelimb, rear limb, hock, knee, or carpus depending on model
|
|
Active exercise or passive relief
|
Active, movement-based engagement
|
Primarily passive external support, though the dog may remain mobile in some models
|
|
Role in rehabilitation
|
Builds exercise exposure into daily movement and home programs
|
May protect a region or provide basic stability within conservative care
|
|
Home or clinical use
|
Home use with free professional fitting support before and after purchase for calibration
|
Consumer-applied home use, no additional customer support… good luck
|
|
Fit and personalization
|
Multi-point sizing plus virtual fitting and calibration
|
Standard sizes selected by owner measurements
|
|
Research and stated results
|
Patented with preliminary gait testing; clinical efficacy claims tested in case studies by rehabilitation veterinarians all over the USA.
|
Product-specific peer-reviewed outcomes are not established by general brace literature
|
|
Cost and long-term value
|
Higher initial cost but broader body coverage, included fitting, domestic manufacturing, and washer/dryer care. Brace is so well made it will outlast the dog.
|
Lower initial price; limited scope may require additional devices or replacement over time
|
|
Important limitations
|
Requires independent rising and walking; not for rigid immobilization
|
Fit, slippage, skin monitoring, and limited control are important considerations with mass-sized supports
