Detailed description

Patella Reliever knee brace is specifically designed to address patellar instability and anterior knee pain. 
It features a half-moon insert for precise patellar alignment and an adjustable traction system to ensure right positioning. 
The brace includes two lateral hinged rigid uprights for ligament stabilisation and a compressive elastic knit that helps to provide proprioception and support. 
The anatomically-shaped knit is designed to provides comfort, with silicone-coated threads at the top edge to prevent slipping. 
Patella Reliever is easy to apply, thanks to the pull tabs, and is available in models for the right or left leg. 
It is suitable for use in conditions such as femoro-patellar pain syndrome, femoro-patellar osteoarthritis and patellar luxation.
