Compression Sleeves: These are the simplest type of knee brace and are most often used to relieve pain from minor injuries, exhaustion, or arthritis. They offer the least support of all knee braces and are the lightest and most comfortable to wear.

Patellar Stabilizers: These braces are designed to stop the patella from moving out of place. They are often used in the treatment of patellar tendinitis and patellar subluxation. Patellar stabilizers are available in a sleeve or a hinged design.

Hinged Knee Braces: Hinged knee braces are the most supportive type of knee brace, and they are often used to treat serious knee injuries. Hinged knee braces sometimes have metal hinges on the sides that allow you to move your knee while still providing support.

Medial/Lateral Support Braces: These braces provide support to the knee while also helping to prevent the knee from moving to the side. Medial/lateral support braces are often used to treat knee injuries such as meniscus tears, patellar tendonitis, and patellar subluxation.

IN CONCLUSION In your search for the right knee brace, it is easy to be overwhelmed by the abundance of options available. You can find a knee brace for every knee injury, whether it is a mild sprain or a more serious ligament tear. We recommend doing your own research and consulting with your doctor or physical therapist before coming to a decision.

Are you looking for a brace that not only helps support the joints and lifestyle of active individuals, but also reduces impact and joint pain by taking weight directly off of the knee? Inquire about our knee support for runners, brought to you by CAMBIVO.
