At Össur we strive to ensure that patients are receiving the best care and options for their bracing needs. Recently we launched the Embrace program to ensure that we were educating patients appropriately and achieving successful outcomes.
Singing Praises
I used to suffer from constant knee pain/throbbing even when not in motion due to cartilage damage. Many of my outdoor activities were greatly minimized due to this pain. Four years ago, I was fitted with an Ossur Unloader knee brace. Since then I’ve been able to enjoy many of my outdoor activities, golfing, hiking and cycling. Two years ago I embarked on my retirement trip, walking the Camino de Santiago, starting in St. Jean Pied de Port, France, climbing over the Pyrenees and across Spain to Santiago de Compostela. I completed 800 km in 30 days, averaging 23 to 27 km a day, using my knee brace. My feet were sore at the end of the days but my knee was singing praises!

Game Changer
After ACL reconstruction surgery, I was fitted for a Ossur leg brace that I've used for years and loved. Fast forward 15 years later, I went in hoping that it could be adjusted because it provided so much relief but needed new straps. Not only did Lisa Evans re-strap my brace, she discussed options for a new unloader brace. Total game changer! So light, so much smaller, less chafing. I wear it for running, or even long walks. Small enough to fit in a suitcase, this brace will be doing lots of traveling as I continue to train. Great Customer service and fantastic product. Well worth the investment!

I am having a wonderful experience with my new brace. I’ve completed 2-3 hour walking tours of Venice and Bologna in Italy, and Split and Dubrovnik in Croatia, over four days with complete comfort and no discomfort. I can honestly recommend this brace to anyone with a similar knee problem.
Thank you,
Ernie
Nick's Experience
Literally life-changing. I couldn't run for more than an hour or so without severe pain in my knee. Since the Unloader, I've done five iron distance triathlons, as well as many more half irons, marathons, and half marathons. After each one, the only thing that does not hurt is the knee I wear the brace on. Astounding. The Unloader has allowed me to continue with sports that I simply wouldn't be able to do otherwise.

Neil's Success Story
A few years ago I had a very sore knee that was not healing. Physio, Chiro and Massage did not help. I went for 2 years with zero results. I then went to a Sports Doctor who recommended that I try the Össur Rebound Cartilage knee brace. I wore it all the time for 6 months, and my knee got better and better as the months went by. I tapered off wearing it for another 3 months, so I wore it for 9 months in total. I have had 1 year of zero pain. I also do a light gym workout once a week that also helps build muscle, and take care of my knee and do not abuse it. I am VERY THANKFUL that I used the brace as it was the only thing that healed my knee. Many thanks to the people at Össur for the simple solution that made a big difference to my life!
