Extended description
Planning and design:
The patella strap is intended to treat pain in the patellar tendon and patella as part of conservative treatment by pressing on the tendon below the kneecap.
Pain reduction:
The patellar tendon is the continuation of the quadriceps muscle, and it connects the patellar bone to the shin bone.
The patellar ligament creates pressure that causes a change in the angle of application of the tendon, an action that helps reduce the load on the tendon and reduce the inflammatory process.
In addition, the ligament improves the movement of the patella during knee flexion, maintaining smooth movement of the patellar tendon.
And provides the tendon with localized heating, which improves blood flow and speeds up recovery.
Rehabilitation and recovery:
Patellar tendon injuries improve through a combination of reducing the type of load that caused the injury, and increasing the load of another type of adapted physical activity.
Using a strap allows you to perform the desired activity without pain.
The use of the strap provides positive sensorimotor feedback to the patellar tendon, improving proprioceptive input,
Increases self-confidence when moving and reduces pain.
Injury prevention:
Some athletes choose to use this product to prevent the occurrence of injury or pain in this area,
Especially those who are prone to pain in the area, or who have had a previous injury.
User manual

- The cuff should be tightened so that pressure is felt on the patellar tendon, but not so much pressure that it stops blood flow.
- Make sure the knee moves in its full range to ensure that the brace does not slip down.
- The patella brace can be used during activity or throughout the day, as needed or according to the therapist's instructions.
- It is recommended to clean the product occasionally depending on the degree of use according to the instructions on the packaging.
