Why Do I Need a Knee Brace?
Knee brace such as the SK Adjustable Locking Knee Brace is ideally worn when you have pain in your knee, specifically around the patella. However, it can also be worn as a pre-emptive support to prevent injury to the knees happening.
What Does the SK Adjustable Locking Knee Brace Do?
The SK Adjustable Locking Knee Brace applies compression (pressure) to your soft tissue, stabilises your knee, and helps redistribute your weight, taking pressure off the injured knee. The brace keeps the patella tracking properly through the full range of motion, providing increased control.
How Firm Should My Knee Brace Be?
Pull the straps tight enough to apply uniform pressure on the tendon. Bend your knees or squat to determine if the strap is tight enough and placed properly. The strap should feel like it is supporting your knee.
