GENUTRAIN A ®

* Irritative conditions, especially gonarthrosis (also the onset of ligamentosis, tendomyopathy, posttraumatic and postoperative)
* Knee pain with functional instability due to general muscular disbalance
* Patellar lateralization
* Jumper’s Knee

Features
* New knitting concept: particularly stretchy, breathable and moisture dissipating for effective compression and excellent wearing comfort.
* The newly developed insert form encompasses typical pain areas and important receptor zones of the knee joint.
* In addition, the viscoelastic insert has friction zones that are covered with nubs.
* The patella corrective guide is imbedded in the insert zone.
* The breathable, anatomical knit is very comfortable to wear.
* Two spiral stays located on the sides retain the shape of the knit.
* A special, non-irritative weave is incorporated in the critical area behind the knee.
* A stretch zone in the lower leg area facilitates application and removal.

Mode of action
* The compression/decompression effect resulting from movement similar to a friction massage promotes the reduction of edema and resorption of swelling. This accelerates the healing process and leads to pain reduction in the medial subcapsular ligament area.
* The stimulation of skin receptors and nerve endings in the muscle-tendon transition supports the neuro-myonal system. This leads to a synchronization and activation of musculature. The vastus medialis is stimulated in particular. The rectus tendon is left free.
* The integrated corrective guide counteracts patellar drifting.
