Knee Braces, Collingwood, ON

HomeKnee Braces, Collingwood, ON

Patients with ligament tears and strains, as well as other knee issues, can benefit from custom knee braces.

At York Foot Orthotics and Bracing, we handcraft orthotics in our in-house lab, but we also offer custom knee braces where we create the cast and send it to a lab for fabrication. Custom knee braces are orthopedic braces used to alleviate knee pain. They offload osteoarthritis, sports injuries, and pain from meniscus tears. Patients in Collingwood, Ontario, with ligament tears and strains may also benefit from these custom knee braces. Fabricated from a cast of the patient’s knee, the cast is then sent away to a lab where a custom brace is made based on concerns of the patient.

Knee Braces in Collingwood, Ontario

Most insurance plans cover the cost of custom-casted foot orthotics and custom knee braces, as well as the complete biomechanical assessment. A prescription and biomechanical assessment are required for orthopedic knee braces.

There is also the option for non-custom knee braces, in some situations. A non-custom knee brace is a corrective device based on a simple sizing method (small, medium, large, extra-large). These types of devices usually take the form of sleeves which are pulled up to wrap around the knee. Some braces may have side metal bars to help support the sleeve. A cast is not taken. The materials are selected based on assessment, patient history and patient concerns. Non-custom foot orthotics and non-custom knee braces are not covered by insurance plans.

CTi knee braces

CTi knee braces are custom-made for each individual to provide total knee ligament support. With Sensil padding for improved suspension and a rigid, non-corrosive carbon frame, these braces can even be used while playing water sports! CTi braces are available in 3 different customizable models and come with a lifetime warranty.

We also offer ankle bracing, which is a good option for weak ankles and injuries. Ankle bracing is used to treat sprains to the ankle joint, helping to stabilize the joint and reduce pain. By immobilizing the ankle, the soft tissue is allowed to heal. Ankle braces come in a variety of sizes and styles to treat a variety of concerns. Most ankle braces will fit comfortably into lace-up or Velcro footwear.
