Bauerfeind GenuTrain Comfort Knee Brace

New Edition Bauerfeind GenuTrain Comfort Knee Brace – Pain relief and stability for the knee joint

Bauerfeind has released a comfort version of the genutrain knee brace.  If your thigh size is too big based on the genutrain sizing chart, the genutrain comfort knee brace may be the perfect fit for you.  The thigh is 1 size larger than the standard genutrain knee sleeve.  It comes in 5 sizes (Medium to 3XLarge) and in 3 colour choices (Titan, Black and Beige).

The brace consists of an anatomically contoured knit and an integral, ring-shaped, functional visco-elastic cushion, the Omega+ pad.  It relieves pain by providing the therapeutic pressure of the support from the kneecap to the soft tissues of the knee.

Two nubs on the lower edge of the pad, the Hoffa pads, exert pressure on the infrapatellar fat pad, thereby also increasing relief for the kneecap and enhancing the pain-relieving effect.  Lateral wings extend into the joint space of the knee, providing targeted pain relief at the meniscus in this sensitive area.

When walking or running with the GenuTrain, the muscular contractions cause the pressure to rise and fall, thereby resulting in an effect which is similar to an intermittent compression massage.  This stimulates the metabolism and helps to dispel swelling and hematomas more quickly.

The support also stimulates receptors in the soft tissue of the knee and also on the skin.  The surrounding musculature is also activated and effective, long-term stabilization for the joint is achieved.

The perfect combination of shape and functionThe material and shape of the GenuTrain knee brace have an ingenious functional design for optimal effect and also a high level of wearing comfort.  The breathable, skin-friendly knit adapts to your every movement, without irritation or slipping.  The material is far softer and more elastic in the sensitive flexion area of the hollow of the knee, and at the edges of the support.

Spiral stays at the sides make sure that the support does not lose its shape during movement, while integrated donning aids make the supports easy to put on with little effort.
