The Cho-Pat Dual Action Knee Strap
The Dual Action Knee Strap incorporates some of the advantages of the Cho-Pat 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 Iliotivial 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. Measurement should be taken above the kneecap.
