Knee Braces

Specialized prescription knee braces are devices designed to support, stabilize, and protect the knee joint, aiding in the management of various knee conditions and injuries.

We prescribe knee braces to;​

  • Provide Stability: Help stabilise the knee during movement, especially after ligament injuries like ACL, PCL, MCL, or LCL sprains.​
  • Reduce Pain: Alleviate pain associated with conditions such as osteoarthritis by offloading stress from the affected area.​
  • Prevent Injury: Offer protection during physical activities, particularly for high-impact or contact sports individuals.​

Knee braces benefit a wide range of individuals, including​

  • Athletes: Those recovering from knee injuries or seeking to prevent them during sports.​
  • Active Individuals: People with knee instability or pain due to conditions like arthritis.​
  • Post-Surgical Patients: Individuals recovering from knee surgeries requiring immobilization or support.​

Types of Knee Braces We Prescribe:

Knee braces come in various designs tailored to specific needs: prophylactic braces help prevent injuries during contact sports, while functional braces support already-injured knees to improve stability during movement. Rehabilitative braces restrict harmful motion during recovery from surgery or injury, and unloader/offloader braces alleviate osteoarthritis pain by shifting weight away from the affected area. For milder issues, knee sleeves with hinges provide compression and light support to manage pain and instability

We are ACC contracted providers of knee bracing. Please advise our team if you have an ACC-registered injury, as this may impact the cost of your knee brace prescription.

What people say…

Receptionists. So lovely. Welcoming smiles, and very approachable. Very comfortable chairs, easy to sit and stand up. Great for people with mobility issues. My appointment time was spot on. A very professional podiatrist. Brian Hudson. I was embarrassed with my feet condition. Brian listened and put me at ease. My appointment time went fast..but so much was achieved in greatly getting rid of my feet pain. Arriving in pain 9/10 and to be reduced to a pain level 3 on leaving the clinic. The next morning my pain level is 1. It Feels so good to be nearly complete pain free after such a very long period of time.

First time visiting a podiatrist and I was so impressed by the friendly, welcoming staff! Jess was so professional, kind and clearly knows a lot about feet! She explained my treatment plan really clearly so I knew exactly what to expect. Lovely Ali at reception was gorgeous too – super helpful and friendly. I’m very happy to drive over from Palmy for my future appointments. I don’t usually write reviews but really wanted to support such a great business!

Adam has a very friendly and professional manner. The procedure on my son’s toe was well explained whilst making him feel at ease. We were seen at short notice which was very much appreciated also. Adam has given us a thorough treatment plan and followed this up with email including photos.

Adam was brilliant and is a superb listener. I walked out with hope in my heart. The receptionist was lovely and easy to talk to. Thanks!

We traveled from Taranaki several times to visit Adam and his team for treatment of toe nail fungus. They are diligent, considerate and dedicated people. Highly recommend.
