Details

The UniReliever ® orthosis offers effective conservative treatment of knee osteoarthritis for all degrees of severity and activities. Thanks to its 3-point relief system with lateral strap guidance, irritation in the hollow of the knee is avoided. The silicone coating ensures a secure fit and prevents slipping. Quick-release buckles and the BOA® wheel make the orthosis easy to put on and infinitely adjustable. The TM5 joint imitates natural knee movement and enables stabilization through extension and flexion stops. Available in universal size.

The Jury‘s Statement

The all-rounder orthosis has a 3-point relief system that effectively prevents irritation in the hollow of the knee for osteoarthritis patients. The intuitive adjustability via quick-release fasteners and the BOA® wheel as well as the natural movement imitation of the TM5 joint make the ‘UniReliver’ an outstanding example of well thought-out design in this area.
