Do you want to become more active in your work life and leisure time, walk down stairs with less pain, and not avoid activities? If this is the case, our Genu Arthro Knee Orthosis 28K20/21 is ideal for you. The orthosis with a modern design has an analgesic effect and effectively relieves your knee joint.
Osteoarthritis of the knee is generally initiated by malalignment of the joint and the resultant overloading of medial or lateral compartments. Over time, degenerative changes to cartilage and bone can lead to significant pain and loss of function for millions of people. The pain is increased by cold, wet weather or by physical stress, like walking down stairs.
As osteoarthritis progresses, your knee degenerates. This slow process can and should be delayed as long as possible. Using our Genu Arthro helps provide a solution.
The unloading orthosis works according to the three-point principle, which makes it possible to effectively reduce the load on the knee joint. Because friction in the joint is reduced, you experience less pain and can meet everyday challenges more easily and become more active during your leisure time. This means improved quality of life for you.
For sustained and effective relief, it is very important that the orthosis is always properly positioned. A flexible, low profile foot stirrup prevents pistoning and migration movement, making the orthosis more effective.
In addition, the Genu Arthro provides a high degree of comfort. It is lightweight and the slim design is inconspicuous under clothing. You can sit naturally and comfortably because it has no rigid elements in the rear thigh area. The breathable SpaceTex® frame pads ensure that the orthosis is comfortable to wear and reduces heat buildup. User-friendly quick closures make the orthosis easy to put on and take off. Your clinician will explain the proper use of the orthosis to you during the fitting.
