What Are Knee Orthotics?

Knee orthotics (also known as knee braces or supports) are custom-designed devices that provide stability, alignment, and protection for your knee joint. They can help with conditions like arthritis, ligament injuries, or recovery after knee surgery.

What Are Knee Orthotics?

Knee orthotics work by applying gentle pressure to reduce pain, improve your knee's function, and help you move more easily. Whether you need them for prevention or treatment, knee orthotics offer targeted support to enhance your comfort and overall knee health.

What Are Knee Orthotics Types?

Hip Orthotics

Designed to prevent injuries, prophylactic braces are often worn by athletes during high-impact sports for extra support and stability.

Functional Braces

People with existing knee injuries, like ligament tears, may benefit from functional braces. These offer support and stability to aid in healing and prevent further damage during movement.

Rehabilitative Braces

Used after an injury or surgery, rehabilitative braces limit your knee's range of motion to protect it while it heals.

Unloader Braces

Designed specifically for knee osteoarthritis, unloader braces shift weight away from the damaged area to reduce pain and improve mobility.

Prophylactic Supports

Simpler in design, prophylactic supports are often made from neoprene or elastic. They provide mild compression and support to help prevent minor injuries during activities.

Patellar Stabilizers

Patellar stabilizers help stabilize the kneecap (patella), reducing pain and improving alignment for conditions like patellar instability or patellofemoral pain syndrome.

Patellar Stabilizers

MCL and LCL braces offer crucial support and stability for various knee issues, helping in recovery and improving mobility.

FAQ

  • Should I continue with leg exercises after getting a knee brace?

    Absolutely! Maintaining strength and flexibility is crucial for knee health. Your orthotist or physical therapist can recommend specific exercises that are safe and effective to do while wearing your brace.

  • How do I properly care for my knee brace?

    Regular cleaning and proper care will extend the life of your brace. Use mild soap and water, and allow it to air dry completely. Avoid extreme temperatures and follow any specific instructions provided by your orthotist.

  • Will wearing a knee brace weaken my muscles?

    When used as prescribed, a knee brace shouldn't weaken your muscles. It's designed to provide support and stability, allowing you to move more comfortably and potentially engage in exercises to strengthen your knee.

  • Can I adjust my knee brace myself?

    Minor adjustments for comfort may be possible. However, it's important to consult with your orthotist before making significant changes to ensure the brace continues to provide the necessary support.
