The Bio Skin Q Lok is the only brace that has been shown to affect patellar positioning in weight bearing MRI studies. The unique design provides necessary compression while increasing surface contact area in the joint, thereby decreasing pain.
Description
Control patellar tracking disorders and patellofemoral pain with the Q Lok. This knee brace is designed to provide dynamic traction control, joint stability, and pain relief. A unique strapping system prevents patellar dislocations and incorrect tracking disorders by applying a dynamic force to the patella, seating it correctly in the trochlear groove. This allows the joint to move throughout its range of motion smoothly and without pain. The Dynamic Traction Strap can be removed and flipped around to fit and protect either the left or right knee. Lightweight hinges on both sides of the brace anchor down the Dynamic Traction Strap and provide extra support and stability to the knee joint. These hinges naturally contour to the shape of your leg for optimized comfort. Breathable and hypoallergenic materials make the Q Lok comfortable for all day use and provide medical-grade compression to reduce swelling, alleviate pain, and enhance recovery. The Q Lok comes in a pull-on version for optimal compression throughout the entire joint or a wrap-around front closure option for those looking for an easy-to-apply brace or to accommodate for the size changes as swelling is reduced.
Recover
Use the Q Lok to recover from a number of knee injuries, including patellar tracking disorders, subluxation, dislocations, osteoarthritis, and general anterior knee pain. The Dynamic Traction Strap is a unique strapping system that provides a traction force on the patella to correctly seat it in the trochlear groove. The dynamic traction force on the patella relieves the pain and aids in the rehabilitation of these injuries. Breathable, hypoallergenic materials provide comfort and medical-grade compression to further enhance recovery. Compression increases circulation which allows more nutrient-rich blood to flow through the injured area. Compression also reduces swelling and inflammation so the tissue can heal and pain is diminished.
Prevent
Prevent knee pain and injury with the Q Lok. The lightweight hinges on either side of the brace give extra support to the knee joint and help to prevent unwanted motion. The Dynamic Traction Strap prevents patellar mal-tracking and dislocations with its unique design. The strap provides a dynamic force to the patella, seating it in the trochlear groove and allowing your knee to bend correctly. Breathable, hypoallergenic materials provide medical-grade compression to enhance recovery and heighten proprioception. These benefits help you move with more confidence and coordination, further preventing possible injury.
The Q Lok is designed to diminish the effects and aid in the rehabilitation of patellofemoral pain. The superior compression and unique strapping system of the Q Lok push the patella back into the correct position in the trochlear notch. A properly positioned patella spreads the force in the knee joint over a larger surface and decreases pain and wear on the joint. This brace is constructed from Bio Skin’s breathable materials making it very comfortable while giving excellent compression without causing discomfort.
