Monday Morning Motivation!
Check out one of our recent customers springing forward with infectious excitement when he tries out Spring Loaded OA at our partner Advanced Pain Relief Clinic! Lucky for us he kept his exclamation PG 😉
“I’m serious, I could not do that before! That is freaking awesome!”

We rarely get the opportunity to bring the faces behind the braces together outside of the office and out from behind the screens. It was so nice to celebrate a successful summer of putting the spring back in the step of North Americans aboard the Tall Ship Silva in the Halifax waterfront!

Shared with approval.

"I did the fitting today. With the brace, she can now easily get out of a chair and her walking has improved. She was so happy and in tears about how much of a difference it made when the brace was on."

Another person getting back to doing more of what they love.

Check out that mean backhand!

Following arthroscopic surgery on her knee, Tenaya stuck to her rehabilitation protocol strictly. She delicately balanced rest and exercise to rebuild the strength in her leg. No matter what she did, she couldn't get her swelling down to a level where she could play pickleball in the way that SHE wanted.

Tenaya's story is all too common. Knee pain from osteoarthritis prevents millions of people from doing more of the activities that bring them joy and strip them of their autonomy. However, they either aren't yet a candidate for knee replacement, they can't afford it or they want to do everything that can to delay it. Knee osteoarthritis patients need a bridge.

That's where we come in.

Spring Loaded is a bridge to allow you to continue doing the activities that bring your life meaning while you await knee replacement surgery or delay it.

Tenaya told us that "since getting the brace, I am able to play as much as I want - even 3-5 hours three, days in a row without pain or swelling."

Get Spring Loaded and get back to doing more of what you love!

Music to our knees - another published research paper demonstrates that Spring Loaded is a great product for people with knee OA who want to get back to doing more of what they love!
"The study results support the intended mechanism of joint unloading via extension assistance, and support use of the TCO brace as a conservative management tool to reduce knee pain in patients with multicompartment knee OA."
Huge shoutout to Emily Bishop and colleagues at the University of Calgary for their incredible work to get this body of work published.

We're so proud of Deanna! She's a fiercely dedicated runner, engineer, and teammate. Deanna has been training intensively for Boston and always shows up at Spring Loaded with a big smile on her face and a multitude of great ideas on how to make knee bracing better - regardless of how strenuous her training has been that morning. Congratulations on the culmination of so much effort. We're so glad to have you as one of the faces behind the braces!

We are so excited to see this new research with Spring Loaded bracing that demonstrates clear multi-compartment offloading benefits for patients with knee osteoarthritis.
We're building the world a better brace, one knee at a time!

The levitation tricompartment offloader (TCO) brace is designed to unload all three knee compartments by reducing compressive forces caused by muscle contraction. This study aimed to determine the ef...
