Why Is Compression Good For Weak or Injured Knees?
Compression boosts blood flow to the area, which in turn promotes healing and helps to reduce swelling, two common post-injury and exercise symptoms. By using a compression sleeve, you can strengthen the knee, better preparing the muscle and joint for high-impact activity and reducing the risk of injury.
Open Patella to Relieve Pressure
The open patella design relieves pressure on the kneecap and the reinforced patella stabiliser prevents displacement and excessive movement. This, in turn, helps to provide structural stability to the knee and the surrounding muscle, helping to control and limit unwanted movement during exercise.
Neoprene Rubber to Retain Body Heat
Blending compression and heat therapy, the Oppo Knee Support utilises a neoprene rubber layer sandwiched between durable cotton and nylon laminates. This helps retain body heat and in turn raises the body temperature surrounding the knee, accelerating the body's natural healing process.
Suitable for Post-Operative Rehabilitation
If you've undergone knee surgery or ACL reconstruction and are in the late stages of recovery, looking to get back to the track or field with little disruption to your knee, the Open Patella Knee Support is the perfect brace to cradle your joints and muscles, offering that additional level of stability.
Hand Washable for Easy Maintenance
Knee supports come into close contact with the body for extended periods of time during physical activity, therefore require an easy and thorough cleaning method for effortless maintenance. The Oppo Knee Support can be quickly hand washed with mild soap at 30° and air dried for hassle-free hygiene.
