PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

The QLok is designed to diminish the effects and aid in the rehabilitation of patellofemoral pain. Patellofemoral pain is caused by improper tracking between the patella (knee-cap) and the femur as seen in the pictures at the right. The superior compression and unique strapping system of the QLok push the patella back into the correct position in the trochlear notch at the end of the femur. A properly positioned patella spreads the force in the joint over a larger surface and decreases pain and wear on the joint. Constructed from Bio Skin’s breathable materials, the QLok gives excellent compression without causing discomfort.
