Mode
of action
The integrated silicone ring of the Genumedi
reduces stress on the kneecap. Together with
the compression of the knitted fabric, it
causes a massage effect. This enhances perfusion
of the joint and decreases swelling and effusion.
Irritation and pain are alleviated. At the
same time, muscular control and inherent
stabilisation of the knee joint are improved.
Supports are most beneficial during physical
activity. The support can in principle be
worn throughout the day. This must depend
on how comfortable the wearer is. Moreover,
the knee may not be bent by more than 70° when
sitting. The support should be removed for
long breaks (e.g. long periods sitting, long
drives or sleeping).
The support is suitable for use in water.
After use, please rinse thoroughly.
