Bauerfeind GenuTrain P3 knee brace helps relieve pain caused by misalignment of the kneecap (patellar lateralization), anterior knee pain (patellofemoral pain syndrome) or pain associated with patellar tendonitis (jumper’s knee).
The Bauerfeind GenuTrain P3 Knee Support is an anatomically knitted support that incorporates a contoured silicone insert surrounding the patella. This support is specially designed to center the patella during joint movement. Anatomical knit with graduated compression graduated toward the edges prevents constriction of circulation and rolling of the support.
The active support, with its two integral massage pads and an adjustable corrective strap, holds the kneecap securely in a natural, central position, activates the musculature and thus speeds up the healing process.
Improved Kneecap Control
The P3 stands for “permanent patella protection” – because the GenuTrain P3 protects the patella (kneecap) during each and every movement. Together with a corrective strap, the integral, ring-shaped pad prevents any drifting. A second, wedge-shaped pad also acts to relieve both pressure and pain.
GenuTrain P3 exerts intermittent compression, thereby accelerating the reabsorption of edema and effusions. Achievement of muscular stabilization of the joint during use. There is also an improvement in sense of security during load-bearing.
Training goal: Regeneration
The Bauerfeind GenuTrain P3 knee brace active support is ideal for use in sport. It shortens the regeneration period and enables training to be resumed more quickly. The extra stretchy knit also plays a part here, with features including a softer zone behind the knee, reduced pressure at the edges, breathable materials and an anatomically contoured shape.
Features Include
- An integrated guide keeps the patella from shifting out of place.
- Provides intermittent compression for the reduction of swelling and edema.
- Promotes proprioception, thus heightening sensory awareness in the knee.
- Innovative trapezoidal stitch in the back of the knee (popliteal region) prevents bunching and pinching.
