SofTec Genu is a multifunctional knee brace, indicated for stabilizing the knee joint in cases of anterior cruciate ligament rupture, collateral ligament injuries, rheumatoid arthritis or severe gonarthrosis, also specifically indicated for sports therapy and excellent in cases of sports rehabilitation.
The struttura of the orthosis combines stability and control thanks to the fixed joint stays and the massage effect exerted by the compressive action of the fabric and the insert positioned around the patella. The knee brace ensures maximum comfort thanks to the SofTec® vector-oriented knitted fabric, anatomically shaped and breathable. The special knitted fabric of this knee brace acts positively on sensorimotor function and muscle control. The compressive action accelerates the reabsorption of effusions or any oedema. This makes it very popular among alto-level athletes.
SofTec Genu, multifunctional knee brace:
Relieves pain
Massages with every movement
Stabilizes the knee thanks to the compressive fabric and “intelligent” joint stays
Excellent for sports rehabilitation
In detail:
A knee that has been operated on or injured needs support and protection against incorrect movements. And above all it needs help with functional recovery. In fact, only by moving in an modo active way is it possible to recover completely from una injury and delay the progression of degenerative changes. SofTec Genu combines the characteristics of an orthosis with the advantages of a brace: two lateral joint stays limit the range of motion to avoid damage and consequent pain. Since the rotation axis of the knee varies from persona to persona, SofTec Genu features intelligent hinges, which allow the orthosis to be precisely adapted to your knee.
The special breathable knitted fabric promotes proprioception of the knee, increasing muscular stability and encouraging healthy movement execution. The fabric ensures secure positioning of the orthosis. The pull straps with Velcro fastening and the functional padding surrounding the patella further ensure correct position retention. The intelligent hinges adapt to your needs and your body. Una zip fastener at calf level makes it easier to put on and take off the orthosis.
Indications for use:
Conservative therapy in cases of anterior and/or posterior cruciate ligament rupture (ACL/PCL), delayed pre-operative and post-operative treatment, long-term rehabilitation and chronic insufficiency
Complex instabilities (traumatic, degenerative; e.g. “Unhappy Triad”)
Lateral ligament injuries
For limiting range of motion (e.g. following meniscus fixation or transplant procedures)
Treatment of unstable knee joints (e.g. severe gonarthrosis, rheumatoid arthritis, PCP, endoprosthesis, – recurvatum knee)
