Donjoy Rotulax Padded Knee Support
Receiving a knock to the knee is common in sports, and these injuries can make it hard to continue playing at your best. Fortunately, the Donjoy Rotulax Padded Knee Support helps people who've suffered a knee injury recover quicker. The brace provides a medical grade compression of 20 - 36mmhg, which increases blood flow and stabilises the patella to encourage faster healing.
