The MedSpec Patellevator Knee Orthosis is beneficial in treating the following diseases or injuries: Patellar tendonitis (Jumpers Knee), Osgood Schlatter’s Disease, Chondromalacia of the Patella (Runner’s Knee).
The Patellovator knee orthosis has a unique design that applies pressure to the patellar tendon without creating a tourniquet around the leg or irritating behind the knee. The Patellovator knee orthosis is able to achieve this remarkable objective by having an interlocking base strap made from Coolflex™ material which is very comfortable and flexes with the knee.
When you pull the external laces of the Patellovator knee orthosis, it applies pressure on the patellar tendon, forcing the padded rope core to engage with the tendon. An impressive feature of this knee brace is its incorporation of advanced technology into a low-profile design that prevents irritation on the opposite leg and enables you to wear the brace discreetly underneath your clothing.
Patellavator knee orthosis provides compression on the patellar tendon, helping spread pressure evenly across the patellar tendon, reducing discomfort and irritation. This compression may also help stabilize your patella, improving its tracking. In addition, Patellavator knee orthosis absorbs stress to the knee, reducing vibrations in the femoral groove.
