General Application: Great for alleviating moderate knee pain, especially in
areas under and surrounding the knee cap.
Medical Applications: Knee Pro-Tec,"The Original Neoprene Knee Strap" helps
alleviate symptoms of tendinitis, chondromalacia, Iliotibial Band Syndrome,
Osgood-Schlatter's Disease, and other knee ailments.
How It Works: Knee Pro-Tec provides compression on the patellar tendon,
helping spread pressure uniformly across the patellar tendon, reducing
discomfort and irritation. This compression may also help stabilize your
patella, improving its tracking. In addition, Knee Pro-Tec absorbs stress to
the knee, reducing vibrations in the femoral groove.
Design Theory: The Knee Pro-Tec patellar tendon strap is designed to provide
consistent pressure on the patellar tendon. The strap is made from neoprene,
which stretches, allowing it to stay comfortably in place. Tubing, sewn into
the neoprene, is used to provide gentle compression and a plastic loop is
utilized to make it easier to adjust. The strap attaches with a velcro
closure. |
