Life Changer
Five STARS are not enough! I purchased 2 of these bands on the recommendation of a friend. I have bone-on-bone arthritis in both of my knees, and I'm told I'm too young for surgery. I have a knee brace provided by my insurance, $$$, but it is so large (long) and stiff, I can't bend my knee to walk and end up limping, stressing the other knee in the bargain. The first time I fastened the Abco Tech Patella Knee Strap around my leg, I had relief before I even stood up. Since then, I am walking perfectly normally. I have been able to walk quickly and I have even been able to run a bit. With my knees the way they are, I have not been able to exercise as I'd like, but I expect that is no longer the case. And stairs are no longer a problem, either. I cannot say enough about these straps! They have changed my life!
