McDavid Thigh Support

This pull on sized neoprene thigh sleeve from McDavid is an excellent functional thigh sleeve ideal for protection of the hamstring, quadricep and adductor muscles and can be worn during sport or during normal daily activity. Its sized design ensures a good fit and is for those who prefer a pull on rather than a wrap around design.

Who Should Use This?

This is a supportive muscular sports support for male and female athletes with no age restriction. Commonly used in contact and non contact sports to keep muscles warm and provide extrinsic support. Can be worn in the working environment to protect the thigh muscles.

It can be used for the following injuries:

• Strains, muscle tears and partial ruptures (muscles benefit from the extra support and compression provided)
• Hamstring injuries
• Quadricep injuries
• Adductor muscle belly injuries
• Contusions to the thigh
• “Dead leg” trauma injuries via a direct blow

How Does it Works?

Circumferential support is provided by the contoured neoprene sleeve. The warmth and support provided reduces injury risk and aids optimum function and flexibility. Compressing muscle groups has long been recognized as a useful tool in injury prevention and helps to restrict the development of swelling (oedema).

Physio Warehouse's therapists advise this brace is an excellent and highly popular product and is often worn by individuals who are susceptible to thigh muscle injuries to help protect against re-injury as well as patients recovering from injury.
