Default neck brace
Can anyone reccomend a neck brace for my friend who has lost all motor function except for speech and swallowing. She has tried the Philadelphia and the HeadMaster and they do not work well for her.

also, does anyone know any ways to prevent flection and extension? she is getting a wheelchair with a headrest this week.

thank you.
