Manufacturing of Knee Braces in Odesa

Knee braces are known for their durability and long service life. They are comfortable and practical, even for everyday use, making them particularly popular among people with high physical activity levels. Furthermore, even with prolonged use, a knee brace does not cause any negative effects but instead provides therapeutic and preventive benefits.

Specialized knee braces are frequently used for treatment and prevention of various knee joint conditions and injuries. They not only reduce joint strain but also enhance stability, promoting faster recovery and preventing re-injury. At the Tellus Center for Prosthetic and Orthopedic Care, you can order a custom-made knee brace designed to perfectly match your physiological needs and individual characteristics.

Types of Knee Braces

This versatile orthopedic device is commonly used by athletes and individuals with high physical activity levels. However, knee braces are becoming increasingly popular among the general public due to their protective benefits, which help prevent impact injuries, sprains, and recurring joint damage. These medical-grade orthopedic devices are made from elastic, hypoallergenic materials and meet all necessary medical and hygiene standards. The main types of knee braces include:

  1. Rehabilitation Knee Brace – used to limit joint mobility for a faster recovery after surgeries or severe injuries.
  2. Unloading Knee Brace – designed primarily for individuals suffering from arthritis and inflammatory joint conditions. These braces help reduce pain and inflammation.
  3. Rigid Knee Support Bandage – frequently used by athletes, particularly in contact sports, as a preventive measure to reduce the risk of injury on the field or in the ring.
  4. Functional Rigid Knee Brace– a device designed for rehabilitation and knee joint recovery without complications.

When purchasing a knee brace, it is crucial to consider both the individual anatomical structure of the knee (to ensure optimal and necessary fixation for each specific case) and previous injuries.

Key Features of Knee Braces

Knee braces offer different levels of support, which should be carefully considered when selecting a product. The available support levels include moderate, strong, and maximum stabilization.

  • Moderate Support Brace – made from elastic fabrics, this type is used for recovery after dislocations, as it effectively immobilizes the joint, improves blood circulation, and accelerates the healing process.
  • Strong Support Brace – typically reinforced with metal splints that reduce pain and support the knee joint in the proper position. These braces are commonly used by individuals with chronic joint conditions or severe inflammatory disorders.
  • Maximum Support Knee Brace – constructed with a semi-rigid frame, hinges, and splints, this brace provides the highest level of fixation. Elastic straps, laces, and Velcro fasteners ensure secure positioning, making it ideal for post-surgical recovery after major knee operations.

With a wide range of sizes available, everyone can find a suitable brace. However, for those requiring a custom-made knee brace tailored to specific medical conditions and doctor’s recommendations, the Tellus Center offers individualized production at a price that remains competitive with market rates.
