Bracing

The Sports Medicine Specialists provide custom knee braces made to measure to your exact leg size.  These braces are rigid, double-hinged and light-weight and are covered by most health insurance plans.  Measurements are made without making a cast mold of your leg. The turn around time for ordering this device is two weeks.  The Athletic Therapist responsible for these custom braces will discuss and ensure the brace fits properly and will educate each individual on its use and wear.  The conditions that are protected by a custom knee brace are ACL deficient knees, MCL/LCL laxity or injury, pre and post-operative knee injuries, meniscus damage, osteoarthitis and osteochondritis dessecans.
