ORTHIA Gel Products consist of a polymeric gel base with medicinal mineral oil. This oil softens, moisturizes and lubricates the skin. The oil penetrates the skin slowly and steadily, helping to reduce keratotic lesions, keloids and hypertrophic scars. ADVANTAGES OF ORTHIA GEL PRODUCTS:

” Friction on the skin is completely reduced as the upper and lower surfaces of the gel move independently;
” Shock, vibration and tension forces are minimized as the gel flows in all directions when subjected to weight and/or pressure;
” The gel adjusts to bony prominences providing extraordinary comfort and immediate pain relief;
” Unlike felt or foam, the gel does not deform;
” The gel has a “memory” which allows it to quickly return to its original shape after being stretched and/or manipulated. It has 400% elasticity;
” The gel is hypoallergenic, non-toxic and antibacterial.
