Bauerfeind shoulder braces are engineered to support healing, reduce pain and improve shoulder stability following injury, surgery or chronic irritation. Manufactured in Zeulenroda, Germany, our braces combine medical-grade compression, anatomical design and targeted support to guide the shoulder safely through movement.

Whether you’re dealing with a rotator cuff injury, shoulder impingement, bursitis, dislocation, tendon irritation or post-operative recovery, our supports are designed to help you stay active and comfortable.

Support for Shoulder Injuries, Instability & Overuse

Our braces are trusted across Australia by physiotherapists, orthopaedic specialists, athletes and active individuals managing conditions such as:

• Rotator cuff tears or tendinopathy
• Shoulder instability or dislocation
• Bursitis and inflammation
• Shoulder impingement
• AC joint irritation
• Post-operative recovery
• Tendon injuries and brachial strains
• Chronic stiffness or weakness

Each brace is designed to improve alignment, reduce strain, enhance proprioception and stabilise the joint during work, sport and daily activity.

Immobilising vs. Active Shoulder Supports

Different stages of injury require different types of support:

Immobilising Supports

Ideal for fractures, dislocations and post-op care. These braces limit movement to allow proper healing and protect delicate structures.

Active Shoulder Supports

Designed for tendon injuries, instability, bursitis and functional recovery. They stabilise the shoulder while still allowing controlled movement – improving confidence and reducing reinjury risk.

Find answers to the most common questions.

When should I use a shoulder brace?

Shoulder braces are best worn whenever you've sustained an injury to the shoulder and are recoverino, as well as to protect and prevent injury when engaging in higher-risk activities like rugby, hockey etc.

If you are suffering from Shoulder Osteoarthritis, a shoulder brace may help relieve the painful symptoms. 

How does a shoulder brace work?

There are two main types of shoulder braces - an immoblising brace or an active support. Immobilising braces work by keeping the shoulder joint in place, allowing for the bone and muscle to heal. This is most common in the case of post-op recovery.

Active supports are designed to allow the shoulder to move while still supporting it, minimising the risk of injury and aiding the recovery process, usually with strapping and gel supports.

Can a shoulder brace help with rotator cuff injuries?

The rotator cuff is a group of muscles that wrap around the shoulder joint, keeping the arm and shoulder in place as it moves. Wearing a brace that bears the weight of the arm and keeps the joint in place while you move is the best way to support the rotator cuff. Bauerfeind's OmoTrain Shoulder Brace has been clinically designed to treat rotator cuff injuries.
