“Jumpers Knee Strap”

Reviewed by Jo Pilsworth on 23 June 2009

Having read about the potential for this item, I thought I would give it a try with regard to an ongoing patella and VMO problem on my right knee. Following surgery on my right knee in December 2008 (lateral release), I had noticed a marked improvement. However, six months down the line, and there was a bit of slippage in the recovery, with pain on using stairs, and a large part of my karate cardiovascular routine not possible.

So, nothing to lose, not least with a black belt examination looming.

I have had the strap on for approximately three hours, whilst pottering around the house, and can't believe the difference that it makes. Stairs are nowhere near as painful, walking is fine. I still need to try this in karate class, but so far it looks promising.

This is a really wonderful knee strap. Well made and very comfortable to wear. I am about to order another so one can be washed, whilst I wear the second one. The material is soft but firm, cannot fault it in any way.

“Really Helps with Basketball Play”

My son is an U15/U16 Basketball National League Player and he also represents his region at international tournaments.

Over the last 5 months we have tried several cheap and also very expensive knee supports from the USA and from Europe for his Osgood Schlatters problem and I can honestly say that this simple velcro strapping arrangement with a rubber tube really beats them all.

These support straps by far have been the most effective pain relieve for his problem. He now won't do a match without them and I have purchased several more pairs to spread the load and act as spares. In fact my 11 year old son also had the same problem but to a lesser degree and after a couple of months of wearing he did not need them anymore.

I was amazed at how effective these straps were. I've recently taken up running and was struggling with knee pain as I increased my distance (25 years i've had knee pain associated with Osgood Schlatters) and nearly over night the pain ceased. It was like running with bionic legs! My knees still swell a bit but there is no pain whilst running or after exercise. Only slight negative is that sometimes they slip and I have to tighten them but that could be because I don't get them in the correct position to start with. Brilliant!
