Do I need a brace?
Your Physiotherapist or Physician may recommend that you use a brace due to an injury, before or after surgery, or due to deterioration in joints because of overuse, or age. You may also need to replace an older brace due to body or lifestyle changes. An accurate diagnosis is a vital first step to selecting the best pair for your purposes, as well as determining when and for how long the brace should wear for maximum benefit.
In sports, such as football and hockey, where large forces and pressures exerted on the knee, a knee brace can prevent injury by absorbing some of the force that otherwise may cause severe injury to the knee.
What does a brace do, how does it help?
Braces help increase stability and can off-load pressure. Following injury, for example, a knee injury, a custom fitted brace will help support the knee and keep it in appropriate alignment. The brace also helps stabilize the knee joint and can be set to restrict excessive bending, twisting, and destructive side to side, or front to back movements that will continue to aggravate an already injured knee.
