body helix Patella Helix

Product Description

The Body Helix Patella knee support band is the first of its kind for Osgood Schlatter Disease (OSD), providing a targeted compression of the patellar tendon. We designed a brace that slips on and stays in place without the need for bulky straps. Your child will want to wear it; and, you can wash it over and over again. 

This Helix is perfect for anyone who suffers from patellar femoral pain syndrome. It's is not just for runners; it is ideal for anyone who suffers pain underneath or to the side of their kneecap.
