Frequently asked questions
Does this brace stay cool during extended use?
Yes, this brace is specifically engineered for comfort. It is constructed with 3-layer Cooltech fabric, which is designed to minimize heat retention and ensure ultrafast drying, making it highly suitable for long periods of wear.
Will the material bunch up behind my knee?
No, the brace is designed with an ergonomic, pre-tensed fabric in the popliteal (back of knee) area. This clever design prevents material bunching and reduces skin irritation when you flex your knee.
Is the brace easy to put on by myself?
Absolutely. It features removable straps and intuitive pull tabs, which are designed to make the donning process simple and repeatable, even for users applying it independently.
Can I use this on either leg?

Does the brace provide relief for my kneecap?
Yes, the brace features an open-patella design. This helps promote proper kneecap tracking and significantly reduces direct pressure on the patella during movement.
Are the fasteners secure and adjustable?
The brace utilizes a robust D-Ring and hook-and-loop strap closure system. This ensures that you can achieve a firm, customized fit that stays secure throughout your daily activities.
Is this product eligible for FSA reimbursement?
Yes, this knee brace is FSA eligible, making it a qualified expense for your healthcare spending account.
Is this designed for heavy-duty support?
The Ossur Rebound is a high-performance support specifically tailored for mild to moderate knee conditions. It provides excellent stability while maintaining a low-profile, non-ROM (Range of Motion) build.
How should I maintain the brace?
