The knee is the largest joint in the human body and makes every day a lot for our mobility. Whether kneeling activities, physical compensatory movements, absorb the impact of shocks, climbing stairs or carrying loads - the knee is always claimed.
Often, the knee will however, excessive sports activities over time damage, but also by mechanical injury to the knee joint can be consequential.

On the basis of scientific knowledge and many years of research supports and orthoses do much more than before. Used to be much more complex healing process is necessary - now come modern bandages or orthoses in the treatment used.
These advanced bandages or active supports to ensure the use of elastic deposits and due to the effect of the compressive knit a faster healing process, in part at full mobility. Because the material composition is two fold after bandage - the elastic insert massages the tissue of the knee, the blood supply promotes intensive areas of the knee joint and reduces the massage effect, the joint effusion (eg, recurrent joint effusion) and swelling. The compression of the knitted fabric has a stabilizing effect (eg, feelings of instability), improves proprioception and reduces pain.
