Innolife Hinged Knee Brace with Open Patella and Side Splints

Stable, natural knee movement with the Innolife Hinged Knee Brace

The Innolife Hinged Knee Brace pairs a bi-axial hinge that mimics the natural knee joint with an open patella and buttress to help keep the kneecap tracking well. Side splints and extra elastic straps add support, and it's made for mild to moderate knee instability, post-surgical recovery and general knee discomfort.

Why You'll Love the Innolife Hinged Knee Brace

1. Moves like a knee. The bi-axial hinge follows the natural movement of the knee joint.
2. Kneecap kept on track. An open patella with a patellar buttress relieves pressure and helps position the kneecap.
3. Built-in support. Side splints allow full weight bearing and extra elastic straps add support.
4. No bunching. An opening behind the knee stops the brace bunching when you bend.

Life with the Innolife Hinged Knee Brace

A knee that feels wobbly makes stairs, kerbs and long walks a worry. This brace wraps the knee, lines the hinges up on each side and fastens front and back, so you get steady support while still bending your knee normally. The opening at the back of the knee helps stop it bunching when you bend.

The Innolife Hinged Knee Brace in a nutshell

1. Bi-axial hinges: sit on the inner and outer sides of the knee.
2. Open patella with buttress: relieves pressure and positions the kneecap.
3. Posterior opening: at the back of the knee to avoid bunching.
4. Six sizes: Small to XXX-Large, including two bariatric sizes.

Choosing the right size

Measure around the knee, standing with the leg straight.

1. Measure the knee. Wrap a soft tape around the middle of the kneecap, snug but not tight.
2. Pick the size your measurement falls in. XX-Large and XXX-Large are bariatric sizes.
3. Right on a boundary? Email us the measurement and we'll check it with you.

Is it the right knee brace for you?

• A good fit: mild to moderate knee instability, post-surgical recovery and general knee discomfort, when you want to keep bending the knee normally.
• Check with your physio first: after surgery or a new injury, and for how long to wear it.
• Good to know: the open patella and opening at the back of the knee help stop bunching when you bend.

To fit it, wrap the brace around the knee with the kneecap in the opening, keep the wide part at the top, line the hinges up on each side of the knee and fasten the hook and loop at the front and back. Every knee and every recovery is different, so we recommend speaking with your healthcare provider or physiotherapist about whether this is the right option for you, and follow their advice on wearing it.
