Orthopedic Bracing

Functional knee bracing has been around for many centuries. Hippocrates braced the lower extremities after injuries in the 4th century B.C., and braces have been used in every century since. It wasn’t until the 1960’s however, that functional bracing became commonplace. As our understanding of the biomechanical, neuromuscular, and neuro-sensory mechanisms governing our body has increased, our ability to treat surgical and non-surgical injuries has also increased.

Today, lightweight materials and state of the art designs have made it possible to both protect and restore a joint to near normal mechanical function. Some of the biggest advances in bracing have come in ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament), and OA (osteo-arthritis). These two areas have seen a dramatic increase in patient compliance and function due to today’s generation of braces.
