The offloading brace is lightweight, flexible, and has a sleek design, equipped with foam padding and medically shaped plastic to minimize skin irritations and sensitivities.
Reduces pressure on your knee joint either on the inside (medial) or outside (lateral).
This varus-valgus corrector adapts to your needs and provides excellent stability at a low weight by reducing pressure on the inner or outer side of your knee. You can adjust the support for the outside (lateral) or inside (medial) using the provided tools. The support struts run vertically, preventing the knee from buckling.

The inner side is designed to be slip-resistant, providing a secure hold throughout the day.
Includes optional flexion and extension inserts to control the range of motion.
Integrated flexion and extension inserts prevent excessive bending and overextension. The adaptability of the ROM knee brace addresses the most common injuries and ensures postoperative support after a procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions
What conditions does this knee compression brace treat? Rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis (OA) of the knee, cartilage degradation in the knee joint due to bone-on-bone contact, meniscus displacements, and unicompartmental knee issues that require pressure reduction, such as avascular necrosis, cartilage defect repair, or tibial plateau fractures, can become less painful with the osteoarthritis knee brace.
