Cho-Pat Dual Action Knee Strap

The Cho-Pat newly patented Dual Action Knee Strap provides an extra dimension of relief for painful and weakened knees.

The knee strap applies pressure upon the patellar tendon below the kneecap to stabilize and tighten up the kneecap mechanism, which improves patellar tracking and elevation and reduces patellar subluxation. It adds further strengthening to the kneecap mechanism by applying pressure on the tendon above the kneecap as well. This tends to reduce the forces of the quadriceps on the patella tendon and erosion of the undersurface of the kneecap due to a possible misalignment of the quadriceps (Q angle).

The device’s design and construction apply constant dynamic forces to the surrounding areas of the knee reducing the likelihood of overuse syndromes. At the same time, the strap allows for full mobility while providing maximum benefits.

Cho-Pat Dual Action Knee Strap Sizing: Measure Circumference at Mid-Kneecap

The Dual Action Knee Strap is available in size X-Small thru X-Large. Note: If you are between sizes, we suggest you order the smaller size.

Cho-pat, Inc. is proud to introduce the latest item to its line of sports/medicine products, the Dual Action Knee Strap When Cho-pat® first introduced the Original (Patented) Cho-pat® Knee Strap to the market nearly two decades ago, little did it know that the simple device would revolutionize the treatment of certain knee disorders, and be recommended by the medical and sports profession and be used by nearly 2,000,000 individuals of all ages and endeavors throughout the world.

The Cho-pat Knee Strap was designed to alleviate the pain and discomfort due to Chondromalacia patella syndrome and patellar tendonitis. Shortly after introduction, they found the knee strap quite effective for Osgood-Schlatter's disease, iliotibial band syndrome and reducing the erosion of the undersurface of the kneecap. It accomplishes this by tightening up on the kneecap mechanism by applying pressure upon the patellar tendon below the kneecap.

The Dual Action Knee Strap incorporates some of the advantages of the original Knee Strap plus the added benefits of further strengthening the kneecap mechanism by applying pressure on the tendon above the kneecap as well. This tends to reduce the forces of the quadriceps on the patella tendon and erosion of the under surface of the kneecap due to a possible misalignment of the quadriceps (Q-angle).

Additionally, because of the nature of the material, (neoprene) the device applies constant dynamic forces to the surrounding areas of the knee joint thus reducing the likelihood of iliotibial band and overuse syndromes so prevalent in the very active.

The device was designed to provide maximum benefits to the knee while allowing full mobility. We are confident you will be pleased with this device as we are.
