The elbow should rest at approximately 90 degrees, and the wrist should sit slightly elevated to help reduce hand swelling. Proper fit improves comfort and healing outcomes.
When Immobilization Is Needed
After surgery or more severe injury, immobilizers with waist straps may be recommended to better restrict shoulder rotation and prevent accidental movement.
Important: Follow Medical Guidance
Wearing a sling too loosely or removing it prematurely may delay healing. Always follow your surgeon or physiotherapist’s instructions regarding wear duration.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a shoulder sling and a shoulder immobilizer?
A shoulder sling supports the forearm and reduces strain on the shoulder, while a shoulder immobilizer includes an additional torso strap to limit shoulder rotation and movement more effectively.
When should I wear a shoulder sling?
Shoulder slings are commonly worn after dislocations, fractures, rotator cuff injuries, or surgery. Your healthcare provider will advise how long it should be worn.
Can I remove my shoulder sling to shower?
In many cases, slings can be removed briefly for hygiene, but you should follow your surgeon’s or physiotherapist’s specific instructions.
How tight should a shoulder immobilizer be?
It should feel secure and supportive without causing numbness, tingling, or circulation issues. The arm should be comfortably positioned against the body.
Do shoulder slings help with rotator cuff surgery recovery?
Yes. Shoulder slings and immobilizers are commonly used after rotator cuff surgery to protect repaired tissues during early healing.
Can I sleep with a shoulder sling on?
Many post-operative protocols require wearing a sling while sleeping during early recovery. Always confirm with your healthcare provider.
Are shoulder slings tax-free in Canada with a prescription?
Some shoulder slings and immobilizers may qualify as tax-free in Canada with a valid prescription from a licensed healthcare professional.
How do I choose the correct sling size?
Most slings are sized based on height or forearm length. Refer to the sizing chart carefully and contact our team if you need assistance.
Will wearing a sling weaken my shoulder?
Prolonged immobilization may lead to temporary stiffness or weakness, which is why rehabilitation exercises are typically introduced when medically appropriate.
What injuries require a shoulder immobilizer instead of a basic sling?
More severe injuries, post-surgical recovery, or cases where rotation must be limited often require a shoulder immobilizer rather than a simple sling.
