Which Size Should I Choose?

The Ottobock Genu Neurexa Knee Brace is available in five different sizes. To determine which of these you need, please measure the circumference of your leg in the these locations:

1. Calf: 15cm below the centre of the kneecap
2. Thigh: 15cm above the centre of the kneecap

Our Sizing Tips

• If your knee and thigh measurements don't match up, we recommend choosing the larger size for greater comfort
• If you do not own a flexible tape measure, use a piece of string to take your measurements, 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

• Made with temperature regulating materials to prevent overheating during the day
• High level of comfort provided by soft material and prime strapping placement
• Wrap around model allows easy application for therapist, relative or user

What is Hyperextension?

Hyperextension happens when the leg moves too forcefully in the wrong direction, usually as a result of playing high-impact sports. This can cause a great deal of damage to the tendons and ligaments in the knee, resulting in long-term instability and a higher risk of injury.

How Can Hyperextension Be Prevented?

Limiting the knees range of motion is the key to preventing hyperextension, and the Ottobock Neurexa Brace does this with hinges that limit extension and flexion of the knee in increments of 10 - 15°. This stops the knee from moving into unnatural positions, which gives it the opportunity to heal while reducing the risk of further injury.
