BRD Sport is on a mission to help provide relief in motion, so the pain doesn’t have to keep anyone out of the game or their everyday activities. According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), an estimated 78.4 million adults aged 18 and older will have doctor-diagnosed arthritis. Mayo Clinic defines arthritis as “the swelling and tenderness of one or more joints.” Wrists, ankles, shoulders, elbows, and hips can often be affected by arthritis. Similar to BRD Sport’s mission, the common goals of arthritis treatment are to reduce painful symptoms and improve quality of life.
Here’s a spotlight on a few of BRD Sport’s 100% made in the USA, latex-free, and medical-grade compression braces that can help with arthritis-related pain:
Compression Wrist Brace
According to Healthline, four types of arthritis can affect the wrist: osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, and posttraumatic arthritis. Similar to the knee brace, BRD Sport’s wrist brace is built with 3D Knit Technology that provides targeted compression to the wrist. It functions as an easy slide on/slide off brace, making it comfortable and durable during everyday movements. With less tension from the brace can come more stability and less pain.
G18, G18 Plus, or G36 Knee Brace
OrthoInfo states that the major types of arthritis that affect the knee are osteoarthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, and posttraumatic arthritis. BRD Sport currently has three types of knee braces: the G18, the G18 Plus, and the G36. The 3D Knit Technology of all braces provides targeted compression, which can help reduce swelling, relieve pain, and enhance circulation. While all three braces have the 3D Knit Technology in common, they differ with their adjustable strap systems. The G18 brace acts as a simple slip-on brace, while the G18 Plus brace has one adjustable strap at the top of the knee and the G36 has an adjustable strap at the top and bottom.
Elbow Brace
Elbow arthritis is often caused by rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis, two inflammatory conditions. BRD Sport has two kinds of elbow braces: one with an adjustable strap and one without an adjustable strap. The padding on both of the braces is there to provide comfort and stability to joints. With or without the strap, both braces have an anti-slip system and are designed to stay on no matter the movement.
