Breg PTO
The Breg PTO is a leading patellofemoral brace in the marketplace today. This model has a unique design that not only normalizes tracking, but also controls hyperextension of the knee. The specialized hinge dynamically adjusts the amount of compression applied through the lateral pressure plate on the patella buttress according to the amount of bend in the knee. As the knee moves into a straightened out position (extension), the plate and buttress work together to form a lateral "soft tissue wall" to control patella migration. The Breg PTO features a unique design that prevents patella subluxation/dislocation and effectively treats chondromalacia better than typical neoprene alternatives. The Breg PTO is available in a standard neoprene model or in Airmesh, a neoprene-free alternative. NOTE: Beware of websites offering this brace for substantially less - this is old merchandise (5+ years) that has been returned by patients and/or has been returned from doctor's offices and may not hold up to today's standards. We sell 100% new merchandise direct from the manufacturer. Buyer beware!
I like how this brace ramps up the stability when I bend my knee - it's allowed to me to remain active and put off having surgery to correct my kneecap. Thank-you so much!
