BioSkin Patella Stabiliser Support
To have a knee out of action either because of injury or surgery can be one of the worst blows to your freedom of motion. Knee pain, like any joint pain, is able to flare up with the simplest of movements, even the bending and repositioning needed to sit might aggravate the issue.
The BioSkin Patella Stabiliser Support gives healthy support to the knee cap, while providing protection and comfort in the unique shape of its 'donut' buttresses. Designed to reduce patellofemoral pain, the stabiliser helps keep the patella (knee cap) in the best position for healthy recovery.
