Indications for the Patella Support

The Patella Strap can be used for the following conditions:

Anatomical Strap

With its anatomical shape, the Patella Strap supports and stabilises your kneecap as much as possible. As the straps can be adjusted, you can choose the extent to which you compress the area. The bandage also applies local pressure over the patella tendon to help speed up the recovery process.

Owing to its anatomical design, the Patella Bandage can be worn underneath your clothes with minimal bulk or discomfort. This allows you to get the support you need while you go about your day.

Why Is It Important to Protect Your Patella?

The knees are prone to wear and tear, particularly if you lead an active lifestyle and play sports often. As we depend on our knees each day to help us move around, any issues in the area can be debilitating to your everyday routine. Conditions like Osgood-Schlatter disease and tears in the patella tendon can cause inflammation and instability in and around the tendon, which can only be improved with sufficient rest and support.

Sizing of the Thuasne Strap

The Thuasne Patella Bandage is available in one universal size to fit most knees. To find out if the strap will fit you, measure the circumference of your knee just below your kneecap. The strap will fit a circumference of between 29cm and 50cm.
