Knee braces and supports are designed to provide stability, protection and relief to the knee joint. BetterCareMarket offers these braces and supports in various forms, including hinges, sleeves and straps, each serving different purposes. Knee braces and supports are used for various reasons, including recovering from an injury or surgery, managing chronic conditions such as arthritis, or preventing injuries during sports.
By supporting the knee joint, these braces and supports help alleviate pain, reduce swelling, improve function, and enhance confidence to perform physical activities. The braces and supports at BetterCareMarket are easy to wear, adjustable and made from materials that offer both comfort and durability.
Knee sleeves are sleeves, designed to slide over the knee and provide general compression for the entire knee joint. This helps reduce swelling, improve blood flow circulation and provide support to the patella and knee joint.
Knee sleeves are commonly used by individuals with mild knee injuries such as arthritis, tendonitis, sprains and strains. In addition, they are also ideal for individuals who may experience pain during everyday sports and exercise.
The OAPL Premium Knee Stabiliser is a knee sleeve designed for everyday use, which provides general compression and support for the patella and knee joint. It is also designed to help those with knee injuries such as arthritis, tendonitis and sprains get active again.
Knee straps are a smaller and more targeted type of brace. It is typically wrapped and fitted just below the kneecap and applies pressure and compression to the patellar tendon.
Patella knee braces are particularly helpful for athletes who participate in high-impact sports such as running, basketball, volleyball and soccer. Additionally, they are also ideal for active individuals who engage in regular physical activities which strain the knee such as hiking, cycling or working out.
These activities place a lot of stress on the knee joint, which may lead to conditions such as runner’s knee, which causes significant pain and inflammation around the kneecap. By applying pressure to the patella tendon, knee straps help alleviate pain and improve stability and overall knee function.
Range of Motion ROM Knee Braces
ROM Knee braces are specialised supports designed to control and limit the movement (range of motion) of the knee joint. They are often used after knee surgeries or significant injuries, such as ligament tears to ensure the knee joint is protected and heals correctly. ROM knee braces have adjustable hinges which sets specific limits on how much the knee can bend and straighten.
The Tuasne ROM-R Knee Brace Recovery is a ROM brace which limits knee mobility when bending or putting weight on the joint during the early stages of recovery when the knee is still weak and vulnerable. This helps the healing process, reduce pain, offers stability and prevents further injury.
The level of support and limitations can be adjusted over time to gradually increase the range of motion as the knee heals and regains strength.
Hinged Knee Braces
A hinged knee brace is a type of knee support designed to provide stability and protection to the knee joint. It features built-in hinges on either side of the knee, which acts as a spring. These hinges allow the knee to bend and straighten while preventing it from moving side to side in ways that could cause injury.
Hinged knee braces are suitable for people who need extra support due to ligament injuries, such as ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) or MCL (medial collateral ligament) tears, or for those recovering from knee surgery.
The brace works by stabilising the knee and limiting certain movements that could strain or re-injure the ligaments. The hinges allow the knee to move naturally in a controlled way, reducing the risk of unnatural twists or turns. This helps in reducing pain, swelling, and overall healing time.

The motion control knee support is best utilised for osteoarthritis of the knee or after knee surgery. These ROM Knee Braces include an adjustment dial. This feature allows the wearer to adjust range of motion, from full extension to limited flexion and enable to gradually increase their range of motion as they recover. These offloading knee braces provide stability, reduce pain, and are a good way to delay the need of surgery.
A Patella Knee Brace is used to hold the patella in place while staying active. It is designed for a dislocated patella, but also works great for knee arthritis, CMP (chondromalacia patella) and patellofemoral stress syndrome.
