New Bauerfeind GenuTrain Comfort Knee Brace - Black

Pain relief and stability for the knee joint

The Bauerfeind GenuTrain active support consists of an anatomically contoured knit and an integral, ring-shaped, functional visco-elastic cushion, the Omega pad. It relieves pain by providing the therapeutic pressure of the support from the kneecap to the soft tissues of the knee. Two nubs on the lower edge of the pad, the Hoffa pads, exert pressure on the infrapatellar fat pad, thereby also increasing relief for the kneecap and enhancing the pain-relieving effect. Lateral wings extend into the joint space of the knee, providing targeted pain relief at the meniscus in this sensitive area.

When walking or running with the GenuTrain, the muscular contractions cause the pressure to rise and fall, thereby resulting in an effect which is similar to an intermittent compression massage. This stimulates the metabolism and helps to dispel swelling and hematomas more quickly. The support also stimulates receptors in the soft tissue of the knee and on the skin. The surrounding musculature is also activated and effective, long-term stabilization for the joint is achieved. Further improvements have been made to the brace, with the result that it is now better than ever at relieving pain and stabilizing the joint.

The Perfect Combination of Shape and Function

The material and shape of the GenuTrain orthopedic braces have an ingenious functional design for optimal effect and a high level of wearing comfort. The breathable, skin-friendly knit adapts to your every movement, without irritation or slipping. The material is far softer and more elastic in the sensitive flexion area of the hollow of the knee, and at the edges of the brace. Contains plastic stays at the sides to make sure that the brace does not lose its shape during movement, while integrated donning and doffing aids make the braces easy to put on and pull off with little effort. Not to mention, this brace contains medical grade compression 20-30 mmHg to assist with inflammation in the joint.

Care:

All Train active supports can be washed separately in the washing machine at 30°C with liquid detergent. Please note the following information: In the case of products with Velcro straps, these should be removed if possible or firmly attached to the designated place. If possible, pads or splints should also be removed before washing. It is recommended to use a laundry net (spin cycle: maximum 500 revolutions per minute). Dry your Train active support in the air and not in the dryer, otherwise, the knitted fabric may be impaired. Please wash your Train active support regularly so that the compression of the knitted fabric is retained.
