- Orthopedic splints with fixing system.
- VELCRO stickers.
The product is equipped with single-axis side splint made of high quality plastic with carbon fibre. The specific location of the splints in the apparatus and their stiffness allows for perfect stabilization of the secured joint. The splints are equipped with special regulation of flexion and extention every 15 deg. This kind of precise adjustment makes the process of rehabilitation of the damaged knee joint easier. There is also a possibility to fix the regulation in the position of 180 deg, this option used if there is a requirement to stabilize the limb in straight position.

This fact makes the usage of the device considerably easier. |
