Dr. Arthritis Doctor Developed Copper Knee Brace/Knee Compression Sleeve/Knee Support and Doctor Written Handbook - RELIEF from Joint Symptoms, Bursitis, Running & Weightlifting (S)

I usually never write reviews on products but this time I thought this might and should be helpful to others. Bought this as a knee support. I have a knee injury (caused by weight training) and I've been looking for the right kind of support for a couple of months now. Came across these sleeves, did not know which size to buy (despite the sizing chart), L or XL, so I bought both. To see and feel which one would fit me the best. These compression sleeves surprised me a bit! The thin, stretchy material actually looked and felt like pantyhoses or tights so I wasn't expecting much support. But after having worn these sleeves for a couple of days I must admit I'm very happy with my purchase. They're not giving me the support I initially bought them for, but they are giving me just enough support and warmth after my workout, when I need it the most. I'm able to wear them during the day, during walks or sitting down for long periods of time without skin irritation, them getting too snug or having to (re)adjust every 5 minutes. Which happens with the tighter, thicker sleeves I bought from Mava. That do give me a bit more support though. So... Bottom line: My search ends here, I just threw all my previous, non satisfactory sleeves out cause I'm sticking with these ones. I have the Mava's for times I'm recovering from a hard and slightly painful workout and these for the moments I just need some light support Sidenote: The 'Arthritis' signature is starting to come loose on one of the sleeves. After just a few days.. I'll live, nothing to cry about but it's just.. unfortunate.. I would imagine a manufacturer having his/her logo on a visible place on his/her product making absolutely sure that it sticks. Now it seems like I'm wearing DIDAS with 2 stripes But I will be ordering a few more pairs. Size XL.

Makes walking with a arthritic knee a lot better

my knee suffers from osteoarthritis due to cartilage damage. I'm an active 40 (ish) bloke with and active job who is a candidate for a knee replacement but is too young. As such being active or when my knee catches or locks it is more painful and swells and I have pain free days but mostly not. so the review is with these issues in mind. Im very pleased with the product in general, it is very thin being a sleeve not a traditional support and is easy to wear under my work clothes all day long and after using it for just over a week I have to say I've not had a bad day suggesting it is doing something for me although obviously it hasn't cured my knee it appears to be helping to minimise my symptoms. However despite fact I'm pleased with it I have two issues to point out. When measuring to see what size I needed I came out as an XL (comfortably) despite not being an XL in anything normally I was surprised but ordered it although I wish I'd ordered the large instead. This is because despite still fitting close it appears to have loosened slightly with wear and now slips down my leg. I would recommend the product but warn anyone to go a size down if they are below halfway of a size range and despite appearing to loosen the sleeve appears to be well made its comfy and seems to be doing some good. I have not contacted the seller but they emailed me after delivery and are keen to answer questions and get feedback. You also get a nice booklet with information and exercises on it. For the price I recommend this seller and product.

On the plus side, the knee brace is extremely comfortable to wear and stays in place all day. I amone of the lucky people who doesn't get a bad reaction from the gripping strips, and within 2 days of wearing it, I became aware I was no longer flinching in pain from my knee as I get out of the car, so the copper is definitely having an effect on the arthritic joint. Having said that, I'm very disappointed that the sleeve gives absolutely no support whatsoever. Other peoples' comments led me to expect some support, but I guess I'll just have to revert to my old cumbersome knee-strap support when hill-walking.

I recently tried the Knee Brace/Knee Compression Sleeve in hopes of finding a product that would provide real support for my knee, post injury. Unfortunately, my experience with this knee sleeve was underwhelming, and I felt it fell short in delivering any meaningful support or stability. The sleeve itself felt very much like a standard lycra product —similar to a tight pair of leggings. While it was stretchy and snug, I didn't feel any additional structural support or bracing that I was expecting from a product marketed as a "knee brace." After wearing it throughout the day, I noticed little to no improvement in knee stability or relief from discomfort. Granted the sleeve's compression was gentle, which might offer mild benefits for circulation or light swelling, but it didn't provide the firm, targeted support I was hoping for. By the end of the day, I found that my knee felt no better than if I had simply worn a pair of compression leggings. if you’re looking for a product to actually brace or stabilise your knee, this compression sleeve falls short.

I ordered this product on the back of the very good reviews and I have to say the product and company live up to the 5 stars. I had ordered a large but I think this was slightly too big for me since I didn't feel as though this was tight enough despite measuring accurately according to their instructions. It was not providing any compression or support. Thankfully the company had contacted me to ask how things were and were kind enough to arrange an alternative, smaller size - so top marks on customer service! The product itself is very well made indeed. It feels very comfortable to wear too, even the smaller size which I will now continue to use. It is held in place by the non slip grip and this does work very well. It looks really good too, certainly not a cheap look to it. Compared to the other thicker sleeves with the harsher material this one doesn't bunch up much at the back of the knee, and if it does this isn't uncomfortable like the alternative versions. This can be worn all day without discomfort. Not too sure how the copper that's infused will work out, though I know this is very well documented and known to aid with joint pain so will persist and see how it goes. You also get a decent booklet about various joint pains and possible solutions so another nice touch to go with the product. Check sizes carefully and if you want it to provide fairly tight support choose a size down is what I have found. Recommended!

I bought the knee support as I tore my hamstring behind the knee joint 8 years ago skiing and now that I'm mid-30s every now and then it tears playing football creating intense short pain then throbbing for days to weeks as it heals. I've tried physio and cheaper knee supports but it doesn't seem to help. The reviews of your product were good but there was nothing on muscle damage. Having tried the support for the last few weeks I haven't had a recurrence of the injury, despite injuring it only a month before that. The product is comfortable and gives a lot of support meaning that if I do over stretch it feels secure. You don't notice you're wearing it as it's quite thin but feels really strong and quality, and with the rubbery grip around the top it hasn't slipped down at all. Overall I'm really satisfied with the product!

For such a light fabric was not expecting it to be that supportive. And it does not bulk up under trousers. Then the handbook is a bonus with some exercises you can take to keep your joints supple. Really glad with purchase. Updated Review, On wearing this was not supportive at all. It is very loose and it has not even being washed. The only place that holds is the band above the knee. You won't even feel you are wearing anything Then the design in front peeled off and this is totally useless. About the copper bit, dunno if that works I gave 2 stars just because of the hand book
