Genu Neurexa
A stroke or peripheral nerve damage can lead to paralysis in the leg. Walking is often difficult, and you may perceive the leg and knee as unstable so that you overextend the knee as soon as you put weight on it.
A stroke or peripheral nerve damage can lead to paralysis in the leg. Walking is often difficult, and you may perceive the leg and knee as unstable so that you overextend the knee as soon as you put weight on it.
Here the Genu Neurexa provides good support. It stabilises the knee and prevents overextension of the knee joint. Bending the knee continues to be possible. You can start using the Genu Neurexa even during rehabilitation and gait training – after consulting with your doctor or therapist of course.

Genu Neurexa – stabilising and supportive
The pleasantly soft, temperature-regulating material prevents excessive heating. The Genu Neurexa should be worn directly on the skin to take full advantage of the material properties.
The Genu Neurexa helps prevent overextension of your knee. However, knee flexion continues to be possible. The range of motion can be individually adjusted by your doctor or orthopaedic technician according to your personal situation.
The sooner you begin with rehabilitation, the more successful it can be. The Genu Neurexa supports an early start to rehabilitation, so you can focus on completing your gait training and potentially regain muscle activity more quickly.
You can put on the orthosis without opening the closures, or open them partly or entirely – the choice is yours and depends on what is most comfortable for you or a person who may help you.
