Our Sizing Tips

• For measurements that fall between two sizes, we recommend choosing the larger size for greater levels of comfort
• The brace is meant to be compressive and will feel tight as a result; if you would prefer less tightness, please choose a larger size
• If you do not have a flexible tape measure, use a piece of string to take your measurements, then measure the string with a ruler
• If your joints tend to swell, please take this into account before choosing your size

Which Conditions Can the Support Help with?

Providing medical grade compression, the Ligaflex ROM Knee Support can help with the following conditions:

• Early stage osteoarthritis
• Meniscus injuries
• Mild to moderate ligament injuries

Easy to Apply in Under a Minute

Designed with an anterior opening, the Knee Support can be put in place quickly and easily. You can also adjust the Genu Ligaflex by simply altering the position of the Velcro tabs. The hinge requires no tools to apply, while the support's flexion and extension stops take seconds to attach to the brace.

How Do I Apply the Knee Brace?

The Thuasne Knee Brace has a straightforward application process, with each strap fastened in a certain order after initial fitting. These full step-by-step fitting process is as follows:

1. Open the knee brace and lay it flat with the interior facing upwards
2. Slide the brace underneath your leg, positioned so that the knee is at the centre
3. Wrap the support around your knee and fasten using the Velcro, making sure the kneecap is uncovered
4. Fasten the suspension strap directly behind and below the kneecap
5. Next fasten the strap below the kneecap at the front
6. Next fasten the strap directly above the kneecap
7. Next fasten the lowermost strap
8. Finally, fasten the uppermost strap
9. Adjust each strap using the buckle system to the desired degree of tension

Replicates Natural Movement

The TM5+ hinge located at the centre of the knee brace is designed to accurately represent natural movement of the knee, meaning it's always held in a position that promotes stability and healing. Contoured aluminium uprights within the brace create an ideal fit for control and comfort.

Flexion and Extension Control Without Using Tools

Supplied with easy-use application stops that can be fitted into the central TM5+ hinge, you can control the range of motion without the use of tools. Controlling the range of motion limits the stress placed on the knee, giving it more chance to heal.

What Are Stop Kits?

The flexion and extension stop kits that are supplied with this purchase hold one pair of stops for each degree of extension or flexion. The extension stop kit includes a pair of  0°, 5°, 10°, 15°, 20°, 30°, 40° stops, while flexion stop kit includes a pair of 0°,  30°,  45°, 60°, 75° and 90° stops.
