Description
The Action Reliever has a unique off-loading action utilising straps to create a dynamic 3-point pressure system that is most effective on heel strike. This design works by applying corrective forces on the leg to reduce the load of the compartment affected by osteoarthritis. This reduces compression and inflammation which is proven to relieve pain. It is available for both medial or lateral OA.
Clinical study: “By wearing the brace, the pain on exertion was reduced and the pain-free distance extended.”
Features:
- Dynamic off-loading the injured compartment is provided by inelastic straps and the combined rigid adjustable hinge on the affected side and the flexible stay on the unaffected side
- Anatomically shaped straps creating a dynamic 3-point pressure system: maximum off-loading on heel strike
- Anatomical knit with integrated anti-slip, oval-shaped, patellar silicone insert, comfort zone at popliteal crease and stretch knit at the edges
- Compression and proprioceptive effect due to compressive elastic knit
- Easy to close thanks to the effortless magnetic buckles with finger loops
- Discreet brace, invisible under most clothing
- Only 2 steps for fitting after the initial fit: slide up the leg and snap the buckles
- 2 models: Right Medial/Left Lateral and Left Medial/Right Lateral
