Knee Support - Why Wear a Knee Strap

Why Wear a Knee Strap

It has been suggested that by wearing a Patella or Knee Strap can reduce the strain on the Patella/Knee Cap  tendon by both length and angle.

Studies show that anywhere between 70-80% of people wearing Patella straps reported improvement in both acute and chronic cases of Patellar Tendonitis. 

It also now appears that Patella Tendon straps are effective in reducing Patella Tendon strain in the most cases of of those who wore one, which may be the mechanism behind the pain reduction.
