Description
Patella Brace
The AllCare Ortho Patella Brace is designed to stabilize the patella (knee cap) and help with maintaining the patella it in its optimal position.
This patella brace prevents the knee cap from tracking towards the outer aspect of the knee (similar to commonly used patella taping techniques). This minimizes stress on the patello-femoral joint which subsequently helps to reduce pain and hasten healing.
Patella Brace Indications
The AllCare Ortho Patella Tracker is primarily used to treat conditions causing pain at the front of the knee including:
- Patello-Femoral Pain Syndrome
- Patella Instability
- Patella Subluxation
- Dislocating Patella
- Chondromalacia Patella
- Post Operative treatment
A AllCare Ortho Patella brace may also be useful for patients with jumpers knee, runners knee and many other types of knee joint problems.
If your knee condition benefits from taping the knee cap towards the inner aspect of the knee, then this is the brace for you.

- Helps to prevent pain due to patella instability

Features
- The C-shaped Patella buttress and straps help to stabilise the patella, maintaining it in the correct position and provides even pressure to the side of the knee

- Universal design – fits left or right knee
This patella brace is washable, lightweight, fits left or right knees and can allow you to return to activity or sport sooner following injury.

Return Policy
Download the Credit Request Form
PhysioAdvisor offers you the option to return an item for a refund or a swap for size. The rules for returning an item are as follows and must be strictly adhered to:
- Must not be used – only tried on for size (for example – at a shoe store, you cannot buy a pair of shoes and walk in them for a day and then take them back – the same rule applies for our goods! We will NOT refund for used items!). Items must not be soiled worn or damaged. Braces etc which have been tried on for size will be fine, however, wearing an item even for short periods of time may result in stains, marks, damages and occasionally smells which will render the item unfit for re-sale. Items which do not meet the above criteria may be ineligible for a refund.
- You must also return the packaging as well as the item itself. Pack the packaging with care. It is needed for reselling. All original packaging must be returned undamaged. When sending items back for return it is essential to ensure they are packaged so as not to damage any part of the item. Items returned with damaged packaging may incur penalties of up to 20% of the total cost of the product (before GST) not being refunded.
- You will pay the return postage.
- For swap for size, you must also pay the postage for the replacement items (ideally via a pre-paid post satchel – this will usually be a similar amount to the original shipping charge). Please include a pre-paid post satchel when returning your item. For larger items that will not fit in a pre-paid post satchel, credit card details will be required for the return postage fee. PhysioAdvisor will pay for postage only on items where our records show that the item has been picked, invoiced or despatched incorrectly.
