GenuTrain\u00ae<\/strong><\/p>\n Bauerfeind creates products for Olympic level athletes as well as for everyday use. \u00a0They have products to support many areas of the body including the shoulders, elbows, hands and wrists, back, hips, thighs, knees, ankles, and feet. \u00a0Their numerous products in each category provide targeted relief for injuries and pain.<\/p>\n This week at the HealthOne Hub we are featuring one of Bauerfeind\u2019s most popular products, the GenuTrain\u00ae knee brace. \u00a0The GenuTrain\u00ae is extremely versatile, offering relief to a large variety of knee concerns including weakness, swelling, and pain. \u00a0The technology focuses on stabilizing the knee joint to achieve faster mobilization.<\/p>\n Common conditions that would benefit from the use of a GenuTrain\u00ae include:<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2013 Irritation (tendomyopathy, ligament insertion degeneration, meniscopathy, osteoarthritis, arthritis, post-traumatic and post-operative) Clinical Use<\/strong><\/p>\n Recent research completed by Bauerfeind demonstrated that using the GenuTrain\u00ae technology as part of a treatment strategy following a sports injury significantly reduced pain. It also led to an increase in the patient\u2019s feelings of stability.<\/p>\n The GenuTrain S\u00ae\u00a0 is a model specifically designed for managing symptoms of osteoarthritis, also known as degenerative joint disease. \u00a0Degenerative joint disease is a form of arthritis caused by inflammation, breakdown, and eventual loss of cartilage in the joints. In Canada, there are currently 4.6 million people living with osteoarthritis (Statistics Canada), a number that is expected to rise over the next generation to more than 10 million or 1 in 4 people.<\/p>\n GenuTrain\u00ae is also the official knee brace of the NBA, with players using the brace for\u00a0knee sprain, strain, tendonitis, runners and jumpers knee. The Active knit\u00ae material is lightweight, breathable and moisture-wicking to provide maximum comfort while on the court.<\/p>\n Learn More at the HealthOne Hub<\/strong><\/p>\n To find out what Bauerfeind advanced bracing options could be right for you, make an appointment with our rehab and physiotherapy specialists.\u00a0\u00a0We are passionate about restoring mobility and would love to offer a combined treatment strategy to restore normal movement to your healthy lifestyle.<\/p>\n Whether you are an Olympic level athlete, a passionate runner, or trying to recover quickly after an injury or illness, Bauerfeind has bracing options that can offer you relief.\u00a0To see a full listing of Bauerfeind products, visit their website at\u00a0www.bauerfeind.ca<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" At Physiotherapy First, we believe no one should have to live life in pain or discomfort, and are excited to partner with Bauerfeind to bring their modern medical aid solutions to our clinic.\u00a0 Physiotherapy First has created a healthy living partnership with Bauerfeind Canada to provide world-class bracing and compressions that will support you on […]<\/p>\n
