Knee support for active stabilization and targeted pain relief
The new-and-improved GenuTrain provides secure support for mild instability and relieves knee pain and swelling.
With a new Omega+ pad, the support provides targeted stimulation to sensitive areas of the knee that influence pain perception and mobility. Its anatomically-contoured knitted fabric with soft textured surface provides gentle massage and activates the body’s proprioceptors to keeps the support in place. Embedded stays with flexible bending zones and donning and doffing aids ensure a secure fit and make the support easy to put on and take off. GenuTrain is soft, breathable and moisture-wicking, especially in the sensitive area in the back of the knee, for all-day wearing comfort.
With medical-grade compression provided by a comfortable knitted fabric, the GenuTrain knee brace produces intermittent massage during movement, relieving knee pain and stimulating the body’s metabolic response. This improves circulation to bring more oxygenated blood to the affected tissue and reduces pain and swelling in and around the knee.
GenuTrain’s uniquely-engineered design activates the body’s own stabilization mechanisms: Its soft knitted fabric is anatomically-contoured and texturized to ensure full contact with the skin, engaging proprioceptors that send signals to the brain. This feedback leads to improved control of the muscles stabilizing the joint.
GenuTrain’s new-and-improved Omega+ pad protects and encases the kneecap, stabilizing the joint and massaging the surrounding tissue during movement. This feature enhances the pain-relieving and sensorimotoric effect of the support by stimulating two sensitive areas of the knee: the Hoffa’s fat pad and the base of the meniscus. In these Hoffa spots and meniscus wings, the viscoelastic gel material incorporates flexible massage nubs, providing additional selective stimuli during movement to counteract unnatural corrective habits.
The GenuTrain knee support remains securely in position. Lateral plastic stays embedded in the brace have flexible bending zones that follow the user’s movement patterns and stretch the knitted fabric around the knee so it does not slip. Donning and doffing aids integrated into the stays make it easier to put the support on and take it off. Thanks to compression-reduced edges and a soft, airier knitted comfort zone in the hollow of the knee, GenuTrain is comfortable to wear, even during longer periods of intensive movement during the day.

The best knee brace I've ever come across
I'm an athlete amd had a major knee injury leading to a major right knee surgery and was recommended this product by a trusted friend. It is by far the best knee brace I've ever come across during my rehab and healing process. I would definitely recommend this product it to anyone recovery and looking for stability during an active activity during their healing journey.

Instant Pain Relief
I have arthritis in my knees, but I have stayed very active and have experienced some very painful Baker's Cysts. I saw an orthopedic surgeon who offered draining my knee, injections and a future knee replacement. I declined all three. I recently had swelling and intense pain that made walking or putting any weight on my knee difficult. After over a month I decided to try this knee brace. When I put it on and stood up, for the first time in over a month there was no pain. I left the house and went on a fairly long walk with no pain, even on stairs. I will probably get a second one to protect my other knee during high impact activities like skiing and mountain biking.

A must have for knee pain
I own four of these braces and wear them every day. I was actually scheduled for knee replacement surgery last month and did not go through with it. With the help of this brace, I'm able to walk, weight train and mountain bike, allowing me to build up the strength again in my leg muscles and avoid surgery. These braces are awesome, and I plan to continue purchasing from this company.

Great support & great customer service
I bought this brace 2 years ago and I wear it 3-4 days/wk for BJJ and 3-4 days/wk for cardio, strength, and conditioning. Awesome fit. Great comfort. Most importantly great support. Not at the level of a hinged brace but blows every other knee support out of the water. I say that because I've tried at least 7 or 8 other ones. For context, I'm post PCL and MCL rupture w/ partial ACL tear.

Best knee support out there
My 12 y/o tore her ACL and wore this within days of her injury. This product has been a lifesaver for her. Not only has it reduced the pain and swelling, but her mobility is great for someone with an ACL injury less than 3 weeks ago. I highly recommend this brace for not only injuries but the prevention of injuries.

Very compressive and supports well
I have knee pain from playing alot of volleyball and Im 15 which is not normal to have knee pain but the Genutrain knee brace helped alot and lessened the pain to where I feel like I have healthy knees, Anyone with knee pain should get it unless you arent willing to buy from the website because its expensive then go check out amazon where size 1 and 2 is 20 dollars cheaper

Will buy again
I have used one pair for several years. They release my knee's pain. I had done too much hiking and too much climbing mountains before. Even It is expensive, I have nothing else could be chosen.

My favorite brace over the years
Given that I've had years of knee problems I've tried more braces than I can remember. At least 20 have been uses at some point or another but of all those that I've tried, the Bauerfeind GenuTrain has been my favorite. I didn't even realize that the 2 braces I own are at least 5 years old and I think the older one is closer to 8 years old. But they're still ticking. I recently decided to pickup a new GenuTrain to see about these improvements that were made. My only complaint about the new one has to do with the size. I went with the size that I measured into rather than going with the same size as I got before. It was a size smaller and boy do I notice it. It feels much tighter. I'll stay on better too but I'm not totally sure I can wear this for a workday. We'll see tomorrow. Overall, the quality of the brace is excellent. As I mentioned, I've had 2 of these braces for over 5 years and they're still ticking. No breakdowns yet. Some wear and tear of course but I'm still using them and they still feel like they do a good job. I'd recommend this brace to anyone.

GenuTrain P3
After a possible misdiagnosis of missing a kneecap that slipped out of place, I was facing knee surgery. GenuTrain P3 knee braces on both knees has kept me walking on my own without a cane, and I cancelled the surgery. Customer service is stellar. Highly recommend Bauerfeind products.

Only thing bad about this product - I waited to long to find it
23 years of Sea Service; undergoing high seas delivering reverberating shock waves throughout the skin of the ship, up and down unforgiving ladders, missing the occasional "knee knocker", littoral operations accompanied by rough surf and uneven terrain, this being the commute just to get to work. I thought my knees had become an "old man" before my time. After MUCH deliberation and comparison of other products in the market I decided to spend the money (with the return policy as a safety net) and give it a shot. One of the best decisions I have ever made. BZ to Bauerfeind - the rounds are on me.
This is how you determine the perfect fit for optimal effect.
