Description
The Patellar Tendon Strap, also known as the Kassel Bandage was developed to provide targeted relief to the patellar tendon and noticeable support for the knee during everyday activities or sports. Combining elastic material with an anatomically shaped silicone pad, this patellar tendon brace is especially suitable for active people who want stability under strain and to reduce pain around the kneecap without unnecessarily restricting the knee.
At the heart of the Patellar Tendon Strap, also known as the Kassel Bandage is the silicone proprioceptive pad. It targets the area where the patellar tendon needs support, and its pressure can be continuously adjusted using the reverse strap with hook-and-loop fastening. This lets you tailor the brace to your needs, from light relief to noticeably firm support. The elastic short-stretch material provides stability without unnecessarily restricting movement. At the same time, the soft binding ensures a comfortable fit, even during extended use.
Another benefit: the pressure-free area behind the knee enhances comfort when moving, for example when climbing stairs, walking or taking part in sports. The Patellar Tendon Strap, also known as the Kassel Bandage can be worn on either the right or left knee, making it a versatile option. By improving joint coordination, it may also help you guide your knee more consciously and relieve discomfort—ideal if you are looking for a straightforward patellar tendon brace for everyday support.
