DESCRIPTION
Thuasne sport reinforced patellar knee brace
The Thuasne sport reinforced patellar knee brace supports the knee joint during sport (football, running, volleyball, etc.). It is designed to centre an unstable patella or one prone to tendonitis.

The compression provides a proprioceptive effect that reinforces the feeling of joint stabilisation.
