BENEFITS
- Enhanced Stability: Targeted compression and patellar support reduce lateral tracking and improve joint alignment.
- Pain & Swelling Reduction: Gentle warmth and compression help to decrease inflammation and soothe arthritic discomfort.
- Improved Confidence: Secure fit and low-profile design allow more active movement without fear of slippage.
- Faster Recovery: Consistent support promotes circulation and may accelerate healing of patellar tendonitis or chondromalacia.
- Extended Wear Comfort: Soft neoprene and contoured straps minimize chafing, making it comfortable for all-day use.
USAGE GUIDELINES
- Initial Fitting: Position the patellar opening over the kneecap, then fasten the thigh strap snugly—just tight enough to feel support without cutting off circulation.
- Wear Time: Start with 1–2 hours per day, gradually increasing to 6–8 hours as tolerated. Remove for sleep or if numbness occurs.
- Activity Use: Ideal for walking, light exercise, and daily activities. Remove during high-impact sports unless advised by a clinician.
- Re-Adjustment: Check strap tension every 2–3 hours, re-tighten if the brace shifts or compression feels uneven.
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
- Hand Wash Only: Use cold water and mild detergent, gently squeeze out excess water—do not wring.
- Air Dry Flat: Lay the brace flat away from direct sunlight or heat sources to preserve neoprene elasticity.
- Hook-Loop Maintenance: Remove lint and debris from straps using a soft brush before washing to maintain grip strength.
- Storage: Store flat or rolled loosely in a cool, dry place, avoiding folding sharply to prevent creases in the neoprene.
