Oprotec Knee support open

What is it?
A neoprene support to provide comfort, support and protection to the knee and relieve knee pain, patellar tendonitis, bursitis and general swelling without adding pressure to the knee cap.

Specific Medical Terms
Knee bursitis is inflammation of a small fluid-filled sac (bursa) situated near your knee joint. Bursae reduce friction and cushion pressure points between your bones and the tendons, muscles and skin near your joints

When can I use it?
Use the Patella knee support to relieve pain and swelling following a sports or work related knee injury as well as helping to relieve mild knee arthritis, patellar tendonitis and bursitis too. Due to the use of heat therapeutic neoprene, this knee support is ideal for use in cold weather when knee pain tends to worsen. It is also ideal for use during tennis, skiing and golf.
Unlike a Closed Patella Knee Support, this can be used daily as it doesn’t compress the knee cap. It is recommended for people who have pain behind their knee cap and difficulty climbing stairs or squatting.

How does it work?
The open patella design provides extra support and helps with overall stability by eliminating glide and twisting at the knee. Weight bearing pressure during movement is more evenly distributed over the joint helping with arthritic and meniscus pain.
