Abstract
An improved splint/therapeutic device for at least partially immobilizing a portion of a patient's body. The device includes a splint body fabricated of a resilient material, the splint body defining an inner surface for engaging the patient's body. The splint body also defines a preselected flexibility whereby the resilient material of the splint body biases the patient's body to a desired body position and provides a preselected degree of mobility.
