Description
This brace is used to reduce knee pain and swelling associated with osteoarthritis, joint effusion, meniscus injuries and general knee instability to name a few. The GenuTrain is made from a soft and breathable knitted fabric with medical grade compression that is strategically designed to follow the anatomical contours of the knee joint. This works to stimulate local receptors in the knee to improve control from the surrounding musculature involved in stabilizing the joint. It also consists of a flexible component surrounding the knee cap region with nodules that help support improved nutrition, circulation and pain reduction for the meniscus and infra patellar regions. This knitted design also reduces local swelling around the knee joint and massages the surrounding soft tissue with movement to help promote improved mobility.
