Product Description

Size: Extra Extra Large

For two decades, the original patented Cho-Pat Knee Strap has been acclaimed by orthopedic surgeons, rheumatologists, podiatrists, chiropractors, family-practice physicians, physical therapists and their patients -- as well as scores of professional athletes. Why? Because shortly after initial usage, it produces a marked reduction in discomfort. What's more, when used daily, it allows most individuals to return to work and leisure activities with increased mobility and greatly decreased discomfort. In fact, the Cho-pat knee strap can offer symptomatic relief for acute/chronic pain associated with Patello-Femoral Syndrome and Osgood-Schlatter's Disease. In most cases, jumper's knee, runner's knee and thigh-muscle weakness respond well. These remarkable results are based on the device stabilizing and tightening the mechanisms of the kneecap via the patella tendon. This strap functions dynamically as the knee bends and straightens. Pressure on the tendon below the kneecap helps guide the kneecap in the grove, improving tracking and helping spread pressure uniformly over the surface area. The strap also elevates the kneecap slightly - further relieving harmful pressure. It reduces or eliminates inflammation and helps prevent knees from giving out

This review is from: Duro-Med The Original Cho-Pat Knee Strap, Brown, Large (Health and Beauty)

I own at least 5 different knee straps. Once I figured out they help me, I set out to find the best one for the various activities I'm involved in.

The Cho-Pat is well made and I purchased it for use when it's very hot, or wet. Most straps are neoprene and can be hot when you are working hard. They also absorb water. The Cho-pat seems cooler to me, and works well when wet.

It costs more than other straps, and I prefer straps where the velcro folds back to provide a more secure hold.

However I'm happy with this strap for the specific times when I use it. If a strap helps with your knee pain, you should own several to find the one that works best for your knee and the activities you are performing. This strap is different from many others and worth trying out.

This is a perfect brace for patellar tendonitis. Beyond that, ask your doctor if this knee brace is right for you. Different braces are designed to treat different injuries, so make sure you select the correct brace for the correct problem.

This review is from: Cho-Pat - Original Knee Strap Large Black

I was looking for a non neoprene knee strap, as the neoprene irritates my skin. This is a great strap with a large velcro area for a solid fit that does not come loose.
