Subpatellar Ring with Copper Yarn

Subpatellar Ring designed to relieve patellar tendinitis.

Patellar tendinitis is an inflammation of the tendon, located under the knee, that connects the kneecap to the tibia. The patellar tendon and the quadriceps tendon work with the muscles in the front of the thigh, straightening the knee facilitating movement such as jogging, jumping, kicking, squatting, etc. Patellar tendinitis is also known as jumper's knee.

The injury is common in sports such as football, volleyball and basketball, as well as activities that involve jumping and running. The MediVaric Subpatellar Ring absorbs and cushions shock/pressure during walking and practicing sports. It provides support and compression in the affected area, reducing inflammation and improving blood circulation.

Features:

1. Universal, anatomical and ambidextrous design
2. Shock absorbing support during impact sports involving jumping and/or running
3. Gel pad that cushions the impact during movement and puts pressure on the patellar tendon. In addition, this pad can be chilled in the refrigerator for 2-4 hours and used to provide a cooling and therapeutic effect, relieving pain.
4. Internal lining made of copper yarn** which reduces inflammation and improves circulation in the injury area
5. Seamless finishes - soft and comfortable when in contact with the skin - that leave no marks and provide comfort throughout the day
