But why should the knees be protected?

The knee is essential to our mobility, so certain shocks or repetitive movements can weaken it and cause pain. In addition to total protection, the knee pad maintains heat at the knee level and allows it to stabilize blood circulation. It is important to take precautionary measures if movements have to be repeated several times.

All these actions risk wearing out the knees and promote the appearance of TMS (iliotibial band friction syndrome and knee bursitis). This type of ligament protection is used to protect yourself and to prevent knee pain problems.

During active leg work, the knee protector increases blood flow and prevents numbness and pain in the feet. It absorbs blows and sudden movements in order to offer in return a soft effect and comfort with less irritation and fatigue.

How to protect your knees at work?

Pain and friction occur when you make frequent movements. Here are some tips to follow for optimum protection for your knees:

  • Vary your working positions toavoid repetitive actions causing knee problems and pain
  • It is recommended to alternate the movements regularly, one knee on the ground then the other.
  • It is preferable to use suitable clothing with pocket of foam or microbeads at knee level for more comfort.
  • To bend down, bend your knees in line with your feet, keeping your heels on the ground. Pivot your knees along with your feet each time you turn sideways.
  • Choose viscoelastic plastics that are not afraid of chemicals and are waterproof to protect your knees.
  • Consult a doctor if you feel unusual pain in your joints.

Choose a knee brace that suits your environment or use seat-knee supports when working on your knees is necessary.
