Customer Reviews of Imak Knee Strap with ErgoBead Pressure Pad - #30137
Customer Review: ....Miracle Cure For The Knee
Summary: 5 Stars
I picked up the Imak knee strap just a month or so ago at a local sporting goods store. I decided to try it since I do a lot of walking for exercise, and I have a particular problem with my knee that I was hoping it could help with. I happen to have arthritis in both knees, but under normal walking conditions neither of them gives me all that much trouble. Not even when walking up hill, for the bodies center of gravity is shifted away from the knees when on an uphill stride. Unfortunately walking downhill for me was yet another matter. I found my right knee would start to get quite painful on downhill slopes. The center of gravity that is pretty much neutral when walking on level ground, and shifted favorably when uphill, was now being felt directly up the leg with every footstep, and the resulting shock through the knee would cause me much pain and discomfort on even relatively short, or moderately sloping hills. The pain may be short lived and bearable, but still very annoying and hurtful. I was unfortunately forced in most cases to slow down and rather tip toe down hill. But most importantly however, the pain would force me to choose routes that were relatively free of hills and valleys, something not always easy, nor enjoyable.
I had in the past wore knee straps and supports of different varieties, but in most cases they were just too stiff and uncomfortable for walking and running purposes. (In the other cases, they just didn't work in easing my pain). I was intrigued by the Imak's simple design, and accompanying chart that was on the package that pretty much explained to a tee exactly what kind of pain and problem I was dealing with, and the support it would offer. I decided to give it a try and buy it. I am happy to say that for me the Imak strap has been a true godsend. It's like it is specifically tailor made for my problem, or anyone else that experiences similar pain and discomfort. The first time I wore it and started down a downhill slope, I immediately felt a dramatic difference in both the support it promises, and in the intensity of pain that was usually present. On mild down hill slopes, there was no real pain at all. And on longer or steeper downhill walks, I experienced a truly dramatic decrease in pain and discomfort. It's really hard to imagine by looking at the Imak strap that such a favorable difference in pain can be accomplished by such a small, simple design. Most knee straps are a strange concoction of belts and straps and holes here and there that are supposed to pretty much accomplish what the Imak does so seemingly effortlessly. It's easy to put on, easy to adjust, extremely comfortable to wear, and you really only feel its support working when you really need it. Although the box that the Imak came in briefly explains the principle behind its design, I am more than comfortable and satisfied with just saying here how well it has worked wonderfully for my problem, rather than offer up a technical explanation as to why it does what it does.
If you experience any kind of knee pain either exactly like, or similar to what I described when either walking or running, (or doing really any kind of exercise), I highly recommend the Imak knee strap. It is very reasonably priced here on Amazon, (it's presently the same price I paid locally), and even though there are quite a few different models both cheaper and much more expensive on Amazon, this particular model is the very one I own, and the one I would recommend. You should give it a try and experience walking or running the way it's meant to be again...
