Relieve your tibiofemoral and patellofemoral OA pain by choosing the BioSkin OA Spiral Knee Brace. It provides relief from both forms of OA pain and is easy to fit, apply and use.
The BioSkin OA Spiral Knee Brace will provide relief from both your patellofemoral (PF) OsteoArthritis (OA) and tibiofemoral (TF)Ā pain.
The brace relieves tibiofemoral pain relief by using an unloading mechanism in your tibiofemoral joint. It uses a 3 point leverage system as well as an inelastic strap to correct the angular relationship betweenĀ the distal segment of your leg (i.e. the segment of the leg below your knee) and the segment above your knee. The leverage system pulls your knee out of varus (which is excessive inward angulation of your distal segment) or out of valgus ( inadequate inward angulation of the segment). The result is decreased tibiofemoral OA pain.
In addition,Ā for about 9 out of 10 patients suffering from tibiofemoral OA, X-Rays tend to reveal patellofemoral OA. The OA Spiral addresses this form of osteoarthitis also, and does so by using a Q Strap to reduce pain in your patellofemoral joint. The Q Strap is designed to restore correct patellar alignment and increase the contact surface area in the joint. Increased contact area reduce pain, since there will be less force per unit of contact area.
With a light and low profile design, you will easily be able to wear the BioSkin OA Spiral under your regular clothing. You will not experience any interference with your day to day activities. Instead you will be free to enjoy the pain relief and improved quality of life that it brings.
