3-TEX - 2

THE KNEE in movement! Climbing stairs, walking and running are everyday actions that we can perform thanks to our knees. The knee joint is one of the most exposed and least protected, and can suffer from a wide range of mechanical injuries. The knee needs to be able to perform many movements in our daily lives. Its extraordinary range of articular motion is possible because it consists of complex structures which must always be in good condition (bone, cartilage, ligaments, muscles and tendons).

In this illustration, we can see how four bones (the femur, tibia, fibula and patella) meet, forming a joint of paramount importance for walking and running, which supports the entire weight of the body on foot take-off and landing. Patellofemoral cartilage Medial collateral ligament Cruciate ligaments Lateral meniscus Lateral collateral ligament Patellar tendon Patella Tibia Mechanical overload caused by obesity, traumatic and sports injuries, the wrong choice of footwear or poor posture commonly trigger pathological processes such as: ▸Degenerative processes ▸ ▸Tendinitis ▸ ▸Ruptured...

▼▼ MAIN CHARACTERISTICS CHARACTERISTICS Uniform elasticity Greater elasticity. Helps placement and removal of the support and allows for greater mobility. Three-dimensional compression Increases protection of the affected area. Improves proprioception and adapts to changes in morphology during the gait dynamic (important in the popliteal area). Open patella and patella pad Stabilises and maintains the kneecap in proper alignment. Prevents the onset of new knee injuries and improves anatomical adaptation during repetitive flexion and extension movements. Femoral and tibial straps Reinforce...
