How Do Unloader Braces Work?
Unloader knee braces for osteoarthritis unload the affected, painful side of the knee using a 3-Point Leverage System. The thigh and calf shells account for two points of leverage, while the Dynamic Force System™ (DFS) straps provide the third. This system “unloads” the pressure from the affected area, providing a clinically proven reduction in OA knee pain.
Unloader One X knee brace for osteoarthritis features a lightweight, low-profile design, which is barely noticeable and fits discreetly under clothing. SmartDosing® dials provide you with simple, single-hand control for on-the-fly adjustability, helping you better manage knee osteoarthritis pain.
