Our Sizing Tips
- If your two measurements do not match up, we recommend choosing the size associated with your thigh measurement
- This support is designed to be compressive and may feel tight at first; if you would prefer less tightness, please select a larger size
- If you do not own a flexible tape measure, use a piece of string, then measure the string with a ruler
- Please take into account any joint swelling before buying, as this could mean you need a larger size
Which Conditions Can the GenuTrain Knee Brace Help With?
Providing light yet effective knee support, the GenuTrain Knee Brace is ideal for the following conditions:
- Feeling of instability
- Gonarthrosis (knee osteoarthritis)
- Irritation (tendomyopathy, ligament insertion degeneration, meniscopathy, chronic, post-traumatic or post-operative treatment)
- Prevention/relapse prevention
- Recurrent joint effusion
Why Use the Bauerfeind GenuTrain Knee Brace?
Recovering from a knee injury is an arduous process, especially if you're someone who likes to keep active. Knees are one of the most vulnerable parts of the body, and sore, stiff, aching or unstable knees are all too common. Painful knees caused by an injury or chronic condition can disrupt the quality of your life, making it harder to play sports or even make it up the stairs.
The GenuTrain Knee Support is the ideal product to aid your recovery. Featuring a viscoelastic Omega pad, it relieves pain, stabilises the knee joint and significantly improves your movement.
How Does the GenuTrain Knee Brace Work?
The Bauerfeind GenuTrain works by taking the load off the knee joint and supporting it, including cases where the meniscus is damaged or worn. This support contains a skin-friendly Train Active knitted fabric that has an integrated massage pad that quickly relieves pain and swelling. The knit of the GenuTrain Knee Support is particularly soft at the back of the knee to ensure that the brace stays firm and comfortable during movement.

Relieves Pain Faster With An Intermittent Compression Massage
Fitted with a special Omega+ patella pad, the GenuTrain Knee Brace provides functional support that hold the kneecap in place. Small stimulators on the pad's surface provide a soothing pressure massage that diffuses pain, reduces swelling and promotes natural movement. This alternating compression massage provides unparalleled relief from pain that most other braces can't match.
The Perfect Shape for Function and Comfort
The ingenious shape of the GenuTrain knee brace achieves optimal knee support and a high level of wearer comfort. A breathable, skin-friendly knit adapts to your every move without irritation or slipping, and the material used is softer for the skin and more elastic in sensitive areas such as behind the knee.
Spiral Stays to Keep Your Knee in Place
The GenuTrain Knee Brace has been updated with a synthetic spiral stay that works both to stabilise the knee and hold the brace in place. Now made with synthetic rubber, these spiral stays are far less likely to break, having been bent and tested for robustness over four million cycles.
