Explanation of the reinforced proprioceptive effect:
Orthoses in the PROMASTER range have been developed to improve the therapeutic effect
- and, in particular, proprioception - on the joint. To achieve this, they activate special skin
receptors on the joint and improve the latter's muscle support, thanks to innovative padding
and an optimised compression effect.
