Bauerfeind GenuTrain P3 Knee Brace with Grip Top

The integrated corrective strap secures the patella in its proper position, counteracting lateral drifting or twisting. Its unique design allows the corrective effect to be adjusted precisely and individually
Friction points on the distal pad section provide a gentle massage effect, relieving pressure on Hoffa’s fat pad and reducing pain
A strategically placed muscle-relaxing pad promotes slight relaxation of the iliotibial tract, minimizing lateral pull on the patella
The anatomical pad wings extend proximally to the joint-stabilizing vastus medialis muscle, improving proprioception (your body's sense of where it is in space) and knee stability
Medically effective compression and alternating pressure massage during movement accelerate the resorption of edema and effusions
The brace can be put on and taken off with minimal effort thanks to the ergonomically shaped, rigid plastic stays with integrated donning aids
GenuTrain P3 stands for permanent patella protection

This is a medical-grade orthopaedic brace that incorporates rigid stays. Braces and orthoses built with rigid components are usually covered under Canadian extended health benefit plans (e.g. Sun Life, Manulife, Great-West Life, Blue Cross, Green Shield Canada) when accompanied by a valid prescription from your physician or nurse practitioner. It also delivers 20-30 mmHg of graduated compression. It may also qualify as an eligible medical expense under the CRA's Medical Expense Tax Credit. We're happy to provide a pre-approval form for your insurance provider — just contact us before ordering. Coverage details, annual limits, and prescription requirements vary by plan, so please confirm your specific benefits with your provider and keep your prescription and itemized receipt for your claim.

Two measurements, both taken with the knee slightly bent: around the thigh 14 cm above the middle of the knee, and around the calf 12 cm below it. Check this product's size chart below before ordering. If you're between sizes, contact us and we'll help you measure.

Machine wash in cold or cool water (about 30°C/86°F) on the gentle or delicate cycle
Wash with similar colours using a regular detergent with no additives -- avoid fabric softener
Use a mesh laundry bag, and secure hook-and-loop (velcro) tabs first to protect the knit
Hand washing is gentler and may extend the product's life
For light use, washing every two to three wears is enough; heavy use needs more frequent washing
Lay flat to air dry -- do not hang to dry (the fabric can stretch out of shape) and do not tumble dry
