Frequently Asked Questions:
Can I use an FSA or HSA to pay for a shoulder brace?
Bauerfeind shoulder braces are eligible for reimbursement through most FSA (Flexible Spending Account), HSA (Healthcare Savings Account) and HRA (Health Reimbursement Arrangement) plans. Please consult your specific plan administrator for more details.
Can I wash my shoulder brace?
Because you should wear your shoulder brace directly against your skin, it will inevitably come into contact with the sweat and grime from your body. For this reason, choosing a washable shoulder brace is very important. All Bauerfeind braces and straps are machine washable and easy to care for. In fact, Bauerfeind recommends regular washing to maintain the shape and compression of the knitted fabric.
How can I wash my shoulder brace?
For products with Velcro straps, pads or inserts, remove them if possible, or fasten them securely at the place provided on the brace. Machine wash your brace in cold water using the gentle or delicate cycle. Wash separately using a laundry detergent with no additives (do not use fabric softener or Woolite). Lay your support flat and let it air-dry; do not put it in the dryer. Proper washing and drying helps your knit support maintain its elasticity and original fit. For more information, visit the Bauerfeind product care guide.
Can I wear my brace or strap at night?
Braces and straps from Bauerfeind are also sometimes known as “active supports“ – i.e. they make it easier for those who wear them to move around. It’s actually this movement that enables the supports to have a positive effect on the body and the healing process. The massage function and the intermittent compression cannot be activated when you’re immobile, however. For this reason, wearing support at night is not effective. It’s better if you wear the shoulder barce during the day when you’re active and then let your shoulder relax at night.
