It’s during the loading response of the gait cycle where the body accepts weight at heel contact. The normal knee flexion angle is 22° degrees as weight bearing impact is absorbed. With injuries or surgeries, such as ACL tears or total knee replacement, knee flexion is reduced significantly, altering the walking gait.
Our unique patent pending 22° Sportcane supports the body by absorbing high loading forces at impact, restoring the normal knee flexion angle. Sportcane is used out in front of your walking gait, allowing utilization of upper extremity, shoulder & chest muscles, to restore normal mobility. This deceases pain, aligns abnormal walking gait & accelerates recovery time, allowing for an earlier return to an active lifestyle.
