Product Details

Actimove Everyday Open Patella Knee Support with Four Stays

Knee pain can be complex, and while compression and lateral stays can remedy pain and instability, pain at the kneecap will require an open patella for pressure relief and tracking correction. The Actimove Everyday Open Patella Knee Support with Four Stays is designed to provide compression and support to aid pain and instability, while the open kneecap relieves patella pressure and helps to correct patellar tracking issues.

What's Included?

  • 1 x Knee Support

Please note that this support is ambidextrous, meaning that it can be worn on either the left or right knee.

Who Should Use the Actimove Open Patella Knee Support?

This knee brace is designed to provide a compressive and stabilising effect that will relieve pain associated with many common knee conditions and irritations. In particular, this support is suitable for:

  • Degenerative knee conditions
  • Abnormal patellar tracking or patellar tracking disorder
  • Chondromalacia
  • General knee pain
  • Overuse injuries
  • Chronic knee pain
  • Knee instability
  • Moderate arthritis

How Comfortable Is the Everyday Support?

As with all supports in the Actimove Everyday range, this knee brace is designed with soft materials that are easy on the skin after hours of wear. The anatomical shape and breathable materials will allow you to carry out your daily tasks in comfort, all the while being soothed by constant compression to stimulate circulation. Completely latex-free, this brace is suited to everyday wear during both sports and casual activities.

Which Size Should I Choose?

The Actimove Knee Support with Stays is available in four sizes. To determine the correct size for you, measure the circumference of your thigh just above the knee (as illustrated) and refer to the sizing table below.

Actimove Knee Support sizing

Size Lower Thigh Circumference
Small 31 - 36cm (12 - 13.5")
Medium 36 - 41cm (14 - 15.5")
Large 41 - 46cm (16 - 17.5")
Extra Large 46 - 52cm (18 - 19.5")

When Should I Use the Actimove Open Patella Knee Brace?

As the name suggest, this knee support is designed to be used during virtually any activity in which you feel knee pain. This could include general everyday wear, or exercise such as walking or running. As the Actimove Open Patella Support is made with a seamless anatomical shape, it is comfortable to wear for long periods at a time.

What is the Benefit of an Open Patella?

The patella, or knee cap, will often be particularly sensitive after a knee injury, and an open patella design ensures that pressure is relieved on the area to relieve pain. This will also help to provide some more stability for the knee cap, which is ideal for moderate patellar tracking issues or in the latter stages of recovery from a dislocated patella.

What is the Benefit of Spiral Stays?

Often after recovering from a knee injury, the joint can be left with some amount of instability. The lateral spiral stays on either side of this support help to correct that instability, and can also serve to provide you with some more confidence while walking or running. The stays aren't rigid enough to make walking any more difficult, but they can guide the knee to proper motion and help to prevent any unwanted twisting movements.

How Do I Apply the Knee Brace?

This support includes no straps, buckles or adjustments, so it's simple to apply in seconds. Simply slip the brace on so that the dark motion-comfort zone is placed over the patella, and you'll be enjoying pain-relieving compression immediately. The image below shows the proper application procedure.

Motion-Comfort Zone for Added Comfort

The Actimove Open Patella Compression Knee Brace is designed to provide even compression across the knee, and will move with your body with each step with maximum comfort. To prevent any slipping or discomfort during movement, a smooth motion-comfort zone is included in the crease at the back of the knee.

How Durable is the Actimove Knee Brace?

As this brace is designed for everyday wear, it had been reinforced to stand up to the rigours of hours of daily use. The edges are reinforced to prevent fraying, and the seamless design helps to ensure the compression of the brace will remain constant for a long period.

Does This Brace Contain Neoprene or Latex?

No, this brace is made from high-performance material that is both flexible and breathable for all-day comfort. This material is both latex- and neoprene-free, which makes it an ideal brace for people with sensitive skin.

For me with arthritic knees and some instability when walking, this gentle support is just enough to instill confidence especially outdoors and on stairs.
So easy to put on and take off at night and comfortable all day.

Following an argument with an ankle grabbing bramble, my knee became unbearably uncomfortable and I was hardly able to walk.
This knee brace definitely seemed to help, making it possible to walk again. The support gained from the stays not only made my knee more comfortable, but also stopped the brace from slipping down. I'd also purchased a different brace without the stays, which unfortunately was hopeless.
Four stars only because I can't definitively say that the recovery was down to the brace.

Must say since I purchased the knee supports and used them, they have reduced the pain and helped me walk further than without them.
For me a must have.

I've been looking for an open patela knee brace for some time. Others I have purchased, despite claiming to be a correct fit for me, have been too tight. This one fits well and is comfortable to wear.
