The Elite hinged knee brace has been designed for the rehabilitation of ACL and other severe knee ligament injuries. The hinged knee brace also helps to stabilise the patella and the collateral ligaments. The Elite hinged knee brace features adjustable straps above and below the knee for added support, while the plastic hinges on both sides of the brace enhance stability.
The Elite hinged knee brace provides outstanding knee protection during a range of activities including snowboarding and skiing and helps to improve the stability of the knee following partial or complete tears or surgery to the knee ligaments. The hinged knee brace is also ideal for use following a meniscus (cartilage) injury.
The Elite hinged knee brace features Coolmax fabric lining which ensures you are kept both cool and comfortable. The hinged design combined with the adjustable straps ensures this knee brace is ideal for rehabilitation following a severe knee ligament injury and helps you to return to sport and activities faster. The Elite hinged knee brace features plastic hinges on both sides of the brace to help enhance stability, while the hook and loop closures easily adjust for a comfortable and easy fit.
Use a mild detergent and cold water and leave to dry - the Elite hinged knee brace is not suitable for use in a washing machine or dryer. The removable splints can be pulled out from the brace before washing.
To find the size you need, measure 15cm above the kneecap. Fits left or right knee. If you are between sizes, please choose the larger size. This product can be used on either the left or the right knee.

“Great Product”Reviewed by Anonymous
I have worn this knee brace for 2 years and have had no problems with it. Yes, it is a little bulky but it does what it’s meant to do, support my knee. Great Product!
“Great support for snowboaridng injury”Reviewed by Anonymous
Snowboarding holiday 4th Feb I fell and caused a Grade II MCL tear. Alongside phyiso 3 times a week for 4 weeks and a skiing brace with supports from PhysioRoom I was back on my board 4 weeks later. I have just returned from a weeks holiday and I managed to ride every day! Couldn't be happier

“Not as Good as PhysioRoom Advanced Knee Brace”Reviewed by Scalecol
I have worn my "Advanced" (RH017) Hinged Knee Brace for over two years. It's well designed and constructed and very comfortable to wear and it provides excellent support and protection for my arthritic knee & worn Patella. I tried to order a "spare" but the item was out of stock so I ordered the "Elite" Brace instead. Equally well made but nowhere near as comfortable or easy to wear!
Specifically the front overlap design just doesn't fit the knee profile as well nor does it align with the knee cap or provide as much cushioning. The velcro straps work with a vengeance. You could suspend an elephant from the ceiling with these straps but you risk injury trying to take the brace off! Such a powerful grip and no pull-tab. The velcro straps on my Advanced brace are just as effective and secure but much easier to open and close. I just hope the "Advanced " Model is soon back in stock and you are planning to phase it out in favour of the "Elite" .
“Bulky and not too pretty”Reviewed by Bungle
I'm a large chap in my sixties and made the mistake of 'retiring' from sport (cricket and other) two years ago. Arthritis has now set in in my spine and left knee (which took the brunt of activity in sport). NHS Physio suggested a hinged brace and I purchased the Elite Pro Hinged Knee Brace. Very fast delivery However no instructions so managed to put it on the first time upside down. My wife then set about fitting it and tightening up the straps. Within half an hour I had pins and needles and my foot was turning purple - perhaps a little too tight then?
So a few days on and the brace is in place and doing exactly as it says on the tin - ok the hinges are a little stiff meaning bending the knee to get out of the car etc is a struggle but I'm sure they will wear in in time. The main thing is the little grandad dance has gone - you know the one when you stand up and you can't put your weight fully on the leg so you do this little stuttering hobble dance. The pain is still there as a reminder but certainly not as bad. Previously I could not straighten the leg because of the pain in the knee now it is just a twinge and I can do the strengthening back exercises my physio wants.
On the downside it is very bulky. You can't hide it under trousers as it makes the leg rise as if the trouser leg has divorced your sock. I'm only wearing it when working (office bound) or walking/exercising as it has a tendency to make the knee area swell (and become uncomfortable). I am ordering another product, like me, unhinged for formal/discreet wear but I would recommend the Elite Pro Hinged Knee Brace as it does the job.
“Good support in all aspects!”Reviewed by Flossie
Bought this knee brace following cartilage operation on my left knee to go skiing. Excellent product managed to ski every day. Also play golf and have worn the brace this year for support and have had no pain or strain. Very happy and have even reduced my handicap. Not sure if after 2 years post operation I still need to wear it but prevention is better than damaging joint again. Totally happy with product.

“Sizes come up small”Reviewed by Anne Bonson-Johnson
I haven't had time to try out the knee brace because the sizing comes up very small. I measured my leg in accordance with the instructions and came out well within the range for a size medium (I'm a woman, dress size 10) - however, when the brace arrived, it was way too small. So perhaps the sizing is off and the reason that this product is in the sale. I'll give the rating an average due to the customer services - it was very difficult to arrange the return (no return label tab on the web site which meant I had to call PhysioRoom and hang on the busy phone line for 15 minutes. The product when it was originally sent out arrived swiftly enough though - and the reason this review doesn't get a 'poor'
“Great in active environemtn”Reviewed by Kizza
Brief backstory on me , i am recovering from a recent ACL injury without surgery and needed a brace that i could wear mainly when working out as my knee was feeling week when working out without any brace.
Negatives
I find the brace uncomfortable on my knee cap when doing cardio exercises, i.e walking to the store or jogging on a treadmill , it just isn't comfortable to wear for day to day things. But if you are stationary , i.e sitting or lying down it feels fine.
Doesn't allow me to be as mobile as i would have hoped.
Positives
When working out it offers great protection and stability, my injured knee ( the one the brace is on) feels like my dominant knee & the brace offers enough mobility to enable me to do most exercises
It fits nicely & doesnt move around on its own
“Great Product - Rescued my ski holiday!”Reviewed by Anonymous
I had sprained the ligaments in my knee shortly before my skiing holiday. My knee was unstable and I was having a lot of pain. This provided the support I needed and was hardly noticible to wear; it enabled me to enjoy a weeks skiing without pain or fear of doing further damage
“Made it possible to ski. ”Reviewed by Anonymous
Twisted my knee 7 weeks ago. Wearing this brace enabled me to ski without problem despite knee only being about 85% recovered. Excellent product offering great support.

“incorrect size very poor quality returned”Reviewed by m j smith
orderd a better quality knee brace
“Good product but!!”Reviewed by Lyndon
This product felt great when I first wore it, it gave me more confidence in day to day movements whilst be really comfortable but after about 1.5 weeks it seems to have stretched so I'm having to rely on the outer strap to keep it sufficiently tight. Just hope it doesn't stretch any more.

“the knee hurts”Reviewed by Assumpta Guevara
The product does not fit me, the knee hurts when I wear it.
However, the service has been excellent, so far.
“Does the job.”Reviewed by wolverine
Was surprised how much difference this made. Felt a lot more confident in moving about with the brace on. Fits well support is brilliant. Having worn it for a while I now forget I have it on.
“Fantastic”Reviewed by Eleanor
Having been hirpling with a sore knee for months . This knee brace is wonderful I can walk without pain so comfortable to ware I cannot recommend this knee brace enough . Thankyou physio room
“Brilliant it enables me to continue with the sport I love”Reviewed by FredavV
Without the brace I could not continue my bowling as the knee I have torn my cartilage is my on my leg which takes the pressure and would be too painful. With the brace it fully supports the whole knee and keeps everything in place, therefore letting me continue to play until something is done
“Quality at a low price”Reviewed by Anonymous
After having ACL reconstruction, I searched online for a replacement knee brace, to use instead of the rather uncomfortable brace provided by the Nhs. After looking, I decided on this brace and I haven't been disappointed. I wear it all day and it doesn't slide around and even though I work In a hot environment, my knee doesn't sweat too much.
I would say be careful when ordering the correct size. I measured twice but the brace was still slightly too loose. PPhysioroom quickly remedied this for me after the 1st phone call.
“Very good ”Reviewed by Suyatha

“just perfect for stabilization”Reviewed by madraoulas
I have bought 4 years ago and I still use it a Mueller hg80 brace.I decided to buy Elite Pro Hinged Knee Brace beacause I have ACL in both knees.So I can compare them.Both are excellent for the work I need them.I play tennis and soccer and I feel safe and secure with them (I run a lot, I don't just keep a racket or waiting the ball to come).After 5 minutes you don't feel it. The product is fine in excellent price.
“Excellent product!”Reviewed by Wise Mother
This was bought for my son who had to have a multiple ligament operation in March so after a big op & lots of Physio he is now looking towards returning to the Sport he loves in the not too distant future! He wanted to protect his knee as best he could & this knee brace protection is perfect as he has both the support & protection when he needs it!
“Perfect, does what it needs to”Reviewed by ADarwish
I bought this item after being told by the doctor I have early Osteoarthritis in my left knee. I did not want to stop my workouts or boot camp, and this brace does it perfect ! It might be tricky to strap on at first, but once you get the hang of it it becomes a charm.
“knee support”Reviewed by kerry
Having torn my medial and ACL three years ago after reading the reviews on this brace I thought it would be the best one to go for without paying too much money. The problem I found is that because I have big thighs where you measure I ended up with an extra large which was no problem but the support strap below the knee was too low and I didn't feel that it gave me the support I needed. Also the support bars to the side didn't sit right but that was due to the shape of me leg.
good quality support but I would say for me not the right one
“Excellent buy. Good value & comfortable. ”Reviewed by Sara
Extremely comfortable knee brace. Sturdy enough to support my knee whilst skiing following ACL rupture. Allowed good movement of the knee and material did not allow my knee to overheat. Excellent buy.
“Good quality, functional and they work.”Reviewed by Greg M (Australia)
I wear a brace on each knee when playing squash as I have been diagnosed with ACL laxity. The hook and loop closures ensure the braces are easy to put on and fit well. Wearing the braces has stabilised my knees and given me more confidence when playing squash.
