How Does the GenuTrain P3 Knee Brace Work?

Unlike other basic  braces, the Bauerfeind GenuTrain P3 Knee Brace utilises a range features to ensure you get the best brand of relief available. P3 stands for 'permanent patella protection' and that's exactly what you get.

Please see the annotated diagram and information below for more details.

Bauerfeind GeunTrain P3 Knee Brace

  1. Muscle-Relaxing Pad: this reduces the lateral pull at the knee, helping to reduce pain.
  2. Corrective Guide: the corrective guide has been designed to stop the patella from drifting laterally.
  3. Patella Cover: this cover counteracts the tilting of the patella, helping to increase stability.
  4. Corrective Strap: this strap can be adjusted to provide you with the right level of kneecap control.
  5. Pad Wing: this ensures proximal extension as far as the vastus medialis muscle, improving proprioception.
  6. Viscoelastic Pad: this flat and anatomically designed pad improves comfort and centres the kneecap
  7. Hoffa Pads: offering distal reinforcement (directed inwards) and compression of the infrapatellar fat pad

Unrivalled Guidance for the Kneecap

The GenuTrain P3 uses a specially shaped functional cushion that works in conjunction with a corrective strap to keep the kneecap centred and perfectly aligned during the movement phase of your gait and step. This offers relief to tired and worn out kneecaps and allows the patella to relax, preventing further aggravation and inflammation.

Keep Moving

Keeping the ligaments, tendons and muscles in your legs moving during rehabilitation and recovery is vital. Whilst rest is also important, there's no better compromise during recovery than compression and light activity.

The GenuTrain P3 Knee Support stimulates the metabolism by providing compression to the entire joint, which in turn reduces swelling and helps relieve pain. This allows you to move freely and recover during movement without irritating the joint and surrounding muscles further.

Can I Use the GenuTrain P3 Brace During Sports?

The GenuTrain P3 is ideal for wearing during sports, particularly if you've suffered an injury from a twist or direct impact. This active knee brace improves healing time while also protecting against the risk of overloading or developing a second injury. The elasticity of the knit ensures that your mobility is not restricted.

How Do I Wash My GenuTrain P3 Brace?

You can wash your Bauerfeind GenuTrain P3 Knee Brace in a cold machine wash on a gentle or delicate cycle. Velcro straps, pads, and inserts should be removed where possible or fastened down. Make sure that you lay the support flat and let it air dry after washing.

Can I Wear the GenuTrain P3 Under Clothing?

Yes! With a flat and slim design, and an anatomically contoured shape, the BauerFeind GenuTrain P3 Knee Brace can be worn under clothing. This helps to ensure that you can continue to enjoy the pain-relieving support of the GenuTrain P3 as you go about your day.

What Colours of the GenuTrain P3 Brace are Available?

Super Knee Brace
Rating:
26 August 2018  | 

Having recently dislocated my knee and damaged my MPFL my orthopaedic advise I buy a Genutrain. Although more expensive than other knee braces the Bauerfeind Genutrain P3 does exactly what it says. I felt very uneasy walking after the dislocation but the P3 stabilises the joint in all the right places. The integrated patella tracking system prevents my patella from drifting outwards while the inner gel massages the muscle.

A very good brace to regain confidence in walking. Stick to the size guide when buying. It will take a few wears to break in the brace but after a while it will soften and adjust to the shape of your leg. I highly recommend this product.

Having used a number of them before, these give the most knee cap support and comfort. The snug fit gives confidence to 'carry on as normal' as far as pain limits allow. You must line it up accurately with the knee hole to knee as adjusting once on is as it should be, difficult. The option of fitting a metal knee hinge either side of joint would make these supports unparalleled.

This is the second one of these items I have purchased. The first one is now showing signs of wear after being worn 365 days all year.....

This Brace has been a God send to me , as my knee was constantly clicking and locking up. This Brace has reduced the amount of times this now happens dramatically. I would highly recommend ALL knee sufferers to give this unit a try.
