Detailed description

The UniReliever® knee brace is an innovative solution for those suffering from knee osteoarthritis. 
Carefully designed to provide effective relief1, this orthopedic knee brace combines high-quality materials with an ergonomic design to meet the specific needs of patients. 
Its dynamic offloading mechanism reduces pressure on areas affected by osteoarthritis1, thereby relieving pain and improving mobility1.

One of the key aspects of the UniReliever® Knee Brace is its ability for personalised adjustment. 
Thanks to its adaptable design, it easily adjusts to different knee sizes and shapes, ensuring comfort for each user. 

Additionally, its semi-rigid construction offers stable support while allowing natural freedom of movement, making it a suitable choice for daily activities and leisure.
UniReliever® also stands out for its ease of use. Equipped with an intuitive adjustment system, it can be quickly and easily adjusted2 by the patient himself. 

This allows patients to manage their own treatment and experience relief, regardless of their experience level with such medical devices.

In addition to its effectiveness and ease of use, the UniReliever® knee brace is also comfortable. Indeed, with the absence of strapping behind the popliteal crease, the comfort of the brace is improved, especially for patients with mild effusion or Baker’s cyst2

Moreover, its adjustable straps provide secure support without compromising comfort, making it a suitable choice for active individuals seeking lasting relief.
In summary, the UniReliever® knee brace is more than just a medical device. It is a reliable companion for those suffering from knee osteoarthritis, offering effective relief1, personalised adjustment, and comfort2. With it, patients can regain their mobility and quality of life with confidence and simplicity.
