The Epitact knee brace is recommended for pain and inflammation in the knee, especially for issues involving the patella such as:
- Traumas
- Dislocations
- Sprains
It is useful for preventing episodes of patellar instability. This device includes a patellar support Epitheliumflex that is placed around the patella to limit its lateral movements. The 3D elastic mesh provides compression that:
- Improves joint perception
- Contributes to its stabilization
The flexible lateral stays reinforce the support in the knee. Thanks to the silicone elastic band on the thigh, the knee brace stays in place, offering excellent support. Additionally, the patented cushion behind the knee prevents discomfort and irritation. The patella is protected from compressions thanks to the anti-compression fabric area, and the micro-perforated mesh helps eliminate sweat, ensuring comfort.
The knee brace is recommended for Gonarthrosis to promote recovery or in the presence of chronic pain. Athletes returning to activity are advised to use the Sports Knee Brace from the same line for greater security in the fragile knee.
