An injury to the arm or shoulder immediately disrupts your daily freedom of movement and hinders natural recovery due to unwanted strain. Without proper support, muscles and joints remain under tension, which can prolong pain. The Heltiq Arm Sling offers the necessary rest and stability for the upper body, allowing you to work on your recovery in a responsible manner.
- Multifunctional design can be folded as a full arm sling or as a narrow bandage for targeted support.
- Manufactured from soft non-woven material for a comfortable feel during prolonged wear.
- Suitable for a wide range of injuries, from wrist and hand injuries to collarbone fractures.
- Easy to adjust for both adults and children by folding the cloth in half.
How it works
The Heltiq Arm Sling works by transferring the weight of the arm to the healthy shoulder and neck, completely relieving the affected side. When used as a full arm sling, the forearm and hand receive maximum rest. When folded as a narrow bandage (broad bandage), the support is specifically aimed at the elbow, upper arm or collarbone, which is essential for fractures where the arm does not need to be fully immobilised.

Use & Dosage
As an Arm Sling (for forearm, wrist, hand): Slide the cloth between the injured arm and the body, long side vertical and point at the elbow. Bring the bottom slip up over the injured shoulder, behind the neck and tie on the healthy shoulder with a reef knot. Secure the point at the elbow with a safety pin. As a Narrow bandage (for elbow, upper arm, collarbone): Fold the cloth narrowly. Bring one slip between the arm and body, bring the other over the shoulder and tie behind the neck. Ensure the wrist and hand rest in the cloth. For children, fold the cloth extra.
Safety & Disclaimer
Medical device. Read the instructions for use before use. Store in a dry and sealed place. Ensure that the fingertips protrude from the cloth when using a full arm sling to be able to check circulation.
