The Anatech infrapatellar Band features a unique embedded foam pressure ring designed to focus compression on the patellar tendon to help relieve symptoms of osgood schlatter and patella tendonitis. Encased in stretch neoprene for added comfort, the band forces the pressure to also help decrease stress at the tibial tubercle.
