GenuTrain A3 Knee Arthritis Relief Support by Bauerfeind

GenuTrain A3 centers the patella during joint movement and stimulates the skin receptors and nerve endings in the muscle-tendon transition around the knee to enhance proprioception and decrease pain and swelling.

Product Features:

  • Knobbed silicone insert activates several key joint muscles (vastus medialis, gastrocnemius) while decreasing pain and swelling in the medial compartment.
  • Centers the patella through corrective wire in the knit during joint movement and insert stimulates skin receptors and nerve endings in muscle-tendon transition around knee to enhance proprioception.
  • Lightweight, breathable, anatomical knit provides controlled compression to reduce swelling and edema and optimizes temperature regulation providing a cool, comfortable fit.
  • Special stretch knit in calf area facilitates easy donning and doffing.
  • Silicone banding at the top on the support and medial/lateral stays prevent migration.
  • Great for athletes or more active people with patellar and arthritic pain.
  • Promotes proprioception, thus heightening sensory awareness in the knee for increased joint stabilization.
  • Special, non-irritative weave in the critical area behind the knee prevents bunching and pinching.
  • Machine washable makes it easy to care for and cost effective.

    Can be used to treat:
  • Osteoarthritis
  • Patellar (knee) subluxation
  • Chondromalacia
  • Patellar (knee) dislocation
  • Anterior knee pain
  • Knee instability due to general muscular imbalance
  • Osgood-Schlatter's disease after lateral release surgery
  • Jumper’s Knee

    Size is determined by loosely measuring:
    Point 1: Loose circumference at 4 3/4" below center of the knee.
    Point 2: Loose circumference at 5 1/2" above center of the knee.
