Genuforce
Knee compression and proprioception

Indications

The DonJoy GenuForce knee brace is particularly recommended to provide support and compression following an acute or chronic knee injury, effectively supporting the recovery phase whilst allowing for a gradual return to normal activities. It is also suitable for mild knee osteoarthritis, providing therapeutic compression and warmth which help to reduce joint pain and improve functional comfort in everyday life.

This knee brace is indicated for proprioceptive and neuromuscular stimulation thanks to its innovative silicone patellar insert with nubs, which stimulates the joint’s sensory receptors and improves perception of the knee’s position. It is suitable for patellofemoral pain (anterior knee pain), providing targeted compressive support around the joint and an effect that helps relieve pain.

The DonJoy GenuForce knee brace is effective for mild knee instability, providing graduated compression and gentle support that improve joint stability without restricting movement. It is also an excellent tool for preventing injuries during sporting or occupational activities that place strain on the knees, thanks to its unique combination of compression, proprioception and comfort, which allows it to be worn for long periods without discomfort.

Description

The DonJoy GenuForce knee brace combines advanced textile technology, premium design and proprioceptive innovation to deliver an optimal therapeutic experience.

Premium anatomical 3D double-sided knitting

This advanced knitting technology allows the knee brace to fit perfectly regardless of orientation, ensuring maximum comfort and consistent effectiveness. The fabric is breathable, stretchy and soft, providing enhanced comfort even during prolonged wear, whilst the stretch zones promote unrestricted freedom of movement.

Innovative silicone patellar insert with nubs

The nubs stimulate the proprioceptive receptors around the patella, thereby improving joint position sense and neuromuscular coordination. This insert provides targeted compression support around the patellofemoral joint, helping to keep the patella in the correct position. Furthermore, the nubs provide a continuous massaging effect during movement, helping to relieve pain and reduce swelling by stimulating local circulation.

Optimised graduated compression

The graduated compression system with decompression zones intelligently reduces pressure at the extremities to ensure a comfortable fit without a tourniquet effect. The anti-tourniquet finishing chain at the top and bottom edges prevents excessive compression of soft tissues, thereby ensuring that blood circulation is maintained even during prolonged wear. This progressive compression promotes venous return, reduces swelling and improves the joint’s overall proprioception.

Effective anti-slip system

The anti-slip strips on the knee brace keep the device securely in place during activities, ensuring that the spiked patellar insert remains perfectly positioned to provide optimal proprioceptive support. The flexible bilateral splints complement this system by providing discreet lateral support without restricting joint movement, thereby allowing full range of motion to be maintained.

Sizing suitable for all body types

The dual measurement system with a ‘Thigh+’ sizing option ensures a perfect fit for all body types. 

Premium packaging and care

It is machine-washable at 40°C on a delicate cycle to maintain its technical properties over time. The bilateral design fits either the right or left knee, simplifying use and allowing it to be worn on either side if necessary.
