Your doctor has prescribed the Genu Sensa for the treatment of your knee complaints. This new active support from Otto Bock stabilises the knee joint, improves its function and relieves pain. The ring-shaped pad in the patella area offers targeted knee joint guidance and relief. Furthermore, compression promotes the resorption of swelling and effusions.

New SKINGUARD® technology

Like all Sensa Line supports, the Genu Sensa is equipped with SKINGUARD® technology. This technology offers numerous advantages:

• A significant improvement in hygiene thanks to antibacterial fibres that suppress the formation of odours. 
• The antibacterial effect is retained even after multiple washing cycles.
• Lower risk of allergies and skin irritation.
• Feels pleasant on the skin for enhanced wearer comfort.

Additional advantages result from the combination with elastic functional fibres:

• Outstanding moisture management which ensures moisture evaporates quickly.
• Extraordinarily soft feel.
• Effective protection against latex allergies since the functional fibre is free of natural latex.

Detailed information on SKINGUARD® technology is found in our Sensa Line product information.

High level of wearer comfort and an attractive design

In addition to its attractive design, the Genu Sensa features an especially high level of wearer comfort. Integrated lateral coil springs keep the support from shifting and ensure a good fit. Thanks to its ergonomic shape in the thigh region and due to its elasticity, the knee support precisely adapts to your individual needs.

Soft and elastic in the hollow of the knee

Compression was reduced in the hollow of the knee in order to enhance mobility and prevent the formation of wrinkles. The patented interlaced knit developed especially for this area is particularly soft and elastic for enhanced wearer comfort.
