FAQ: How does a patella strap reduce knee pain?

A patella strap applies pressure below the kneecap, directly over the patella tendon. This pressure alters the biomechanics of how the patella tendon transmits force during knee bending - effectively offloading the irritated section of tendon or patellofemoral joint. Most people with runner's knee or jumper's knee experience significant pain reduction during activity when wearing a correctly positioned patella strap. Position the strap just below the bottom of the kneecap for best effect.

FAQ: Should I wear the Thermastrap Patella Strap all day?

Patella straps are best worn during activity that provokes knee pain - running, jumping, stair climbing, squatting. Remove during rest. Wearing during activity allows symptom-controlled sport participation while the underlying condition is managed through physiotherapy and load modification. Consult our pharmacist or a physiotherapist for guidance on appropriate use alongside a rehabilitation program.
