At our HealthMax Physiotherapy clinics, we often get asked about Knee braces which are great for athletes who are rehabilitating an injury or those who need to take pressure off the vital joints and relieve pain. Custom knee braces help redistribute weight, alleviating pressure and allowing the muscles in the knee to strengthen itself. You may be wondering why you would need a knee brace? Knee braces help speed up the recovery for ACL/MCL injuries, jumper’s knee, and other ailments associated with the knee. They are also proven to relieve pain. At our physical therapy clinics, we carry three separate DonJoy custom knee braces designed to help restore function and rehabilitate injuries.

DonJoy A22

The DonJoy A22 custom knee brace is great for athletes who are looking to perform at a high level while playing just about any sport. The A22 brace is made up primarily of titanium, allowing a perfect balance of weight and strength, making it easy to perform any sport. This knee brace has been proven to work and keeps the knee safe and secure. Another key factor pertaining to this brace is the fact that it keeps the knees out of any risky positions, limiting the chance of a reoccurring injury. This titanium knee brace has aerodynamic straps allowing for full function and big cushioning for comfort, perfect for preventing injuries while playing sports.

DonJoy Defiance

If you have recently injured your ACL, PCL, MCL, or LCL then the DonJoy Defiance custom knee brace is probably the one you are looking for. This lightweight brace will provide support for severe and moderate knee injuries and is commonly used by high-level NCAA athletes who are looking for a speedy and safe recovery.
