Genutrain A3 Knee Support

ACTIVE SUPPORT FOR THE TREATMENT OF COMPLEX KNEE COMPLAINTS

Indications

• Knee irritation, particularly in the case of osteoarthritis of the knee and arthritis (chronic, posttraumatic, and post-operative, ligament insertion degeneration and tendomyopathy)
• Knee pain with functional instability due to general muscular imbalance
• Recurrent joint effusion
• Prevention / relapse prevention
• Patellar lateralization

Features

• Train knit design: particularly stretchy, breathable and moisture wicking for excellent wearing comfort especially behind the knee.
• The special pad shape covers typical pain areas and important receptor zones of the knee joint.
• In addition, the viscoelastic pad features friction zones that are covered with nubs.
• The patellar corrective strap is embedded in the pad zone.
• A special fabric weave that is gentle on the skin covers the critical popliteal area.
• An expansion zone in the lower leg section makes it easier to put the support on and to take it off.

Mode of Action

• The compression / decompression effect resulting from movement similar to a friction massage promotes the reduction of edema and reabsorption of effusions. This accelerates the healing process and leads to pain reduction in the medial capsular ligament area.
• The stimulation of skin receptors and nerve endings in the muscle-tendon junction supports the neuro-myonal control system. This leads to a synchronization and activation of the muscles. The teardrop muscle is stimulated in particular. The tendon of the quadriceps femoris muscles is left free.
• The integrated corrective strap counteracts patellar drifting.
