Genumedi® PT is a support to influence the glide direction of the kneecap (patella). The integrated silicone pads in the knee support relieve pain and leads to a reduction of swelling (such as oedema or haematomas). The complex pad design influences the correct patellar placement by specifically addressing individual muscles. The pressure can be individually adjusted by means of the support's strap.

The Genumedi® PT knee support is used when a positive effect on the guidance of the patella is necessary, such as:

  • patellofemoral pain syndrome 
  • patellar maltracking
  • patellar lateralisation 
  • hypermobile patella
  • malalignment

The muscle-relaxing pad on the Genumedi® PT support acts on trigger points to relax the outer thigh muscle (vastus lateralis muscle). The pressure on the pad can be regulated by the strap. The activating pad stimulates in turn the inner muscles of the thigh. A laterally reinforced patella ring supports a safe guidance of the kneecap. The surface pressure exerted on the kneecap is minimised by the open enclosure of the patellar silicone ring. The soft knitted cuffs (medi Soft border) prevents constriction at the ends of the support.

The compressive knitted fabric of the Genumedi® PT enables a stabilisation and relief of the joint whilst improving self-perception of the body (proprioception) and further supports the guidance and stabilisation of the joint.

Genumedi® PT is gentle on the skin as a result of the unique combination of high-tech fibres and natural eucalyptus fibres. Clima Comfort* boosts the comfort by transporting moisture from the surface of the skin and ensures high breathability. Furthermore, the integrated Clima Fresh function has an antibacterial effect and prevents odours. Genumedi® PT is just as suitable for sporting activities as it is for everyday life.

* Scientifically tested by the French Institut IFTH. The test result shows that Clima Comfort technology from medi guarantees climate exchange between the skin and the garment. medi achieved an outstanding total score with 11 out of 12 points.
