The function of knee braces

 

Knee braces serve three main purposes: immobilization, insulation, and health maintenance.

 

1. Insulation is self-explanatory.

The knee area is very susceptible to cold, and many knee problems are related to this, especially in the mountains where the wind is very cold and harsh.

 

Often, the leg muscles feel warm from continuous movement, while the knees remain cool due to lack of muscle activity.

When people feel comfortable cooling their legs, their knees are actually getting cold.

Wearing a knee brace in this situation provides excellent insulation.

 

2. The knee joint is where the upper and lower leg bones meet.

The meniscus is located in the middle, and the patella is in front.

 

The patella is suspended in front of the leg bone junction by two muscles and is very prone to sliding.

In normal daily life, without external forces or strenuous exercise, the patella can move within a small range of motion in the knee area.

 

However, mountain climbing puts excessive pressure on the knee, and the strenuous activity during the climb can easily cause the patella to shift out of its original position, leading to knee joint problems.

 

Wearing a knee brace can fix the patella in a relatively stable position, preventing it from being easily injured.

The above describes the mild immobilization effect of a knee brace when the knee joint is not injured.

 

After a knee injury, using a knee brace with strong immobilization can reduce knee flexion, maintaining a straight line from the thigh to the calf, reducing knee flexion, and thus protecting the knee joint from further aggravating the condition.

 

3. Let's talk about the health benefits of knee braces.

This is easier to understand.

 

In addition to the heat preservation and immobilization effects of traditional knee braces, the addition of a far-infrared negative ion energy layer to the materials used in the new far-infrared negative ion health knee brace can cause resonance of subcutaneous biomolecules in the knee, thereby heating deep tissues.

 

This promotes blood circulation, improves microcirculation, and relaxes the meridians. Long-term wear can effectively prevent and treat knee conditions such as arthritis and rheumatism.
