Au cœur du genou Power Knee, un moteur aide à compenser l’absence de force musculaire. Lorsque vous marchez, que vous vous levez, lorsque vous montez ou descendez des pentes et des escaliers, le Power Knee vous fournit une assistance active.
Cette assistance active vous offre symétrie, stabilité et endurance.
