Custom
Knee Bracing in Windsor, NS
Off-the-shelf knee braces are built for average dimensions. Your knee is not average — it has its own alignment, its own ligament laxity, its own pain pattern. A custom brace is measured directly from your leg, which means the support lands exactly where the instability lives.
For many patients across the Annapolis Valley, South Shore, HRM, Truro and surrounding areas, a properly fitted custom knee brace has meant the difference between waiting for surgery in pain and returning to daily routines with confidence. That is not a small thing when you are 78 with both hips replaced and still waiting on a knee replacement — or when you are an active person whose ligament damage has stolen your ability to walk your property. Call Performance Orthopaedic Bracing today to schedule an appointment for custom knee bracing in Windsor.
Fabulous. Was headed for knee replacement and instead with PRP injections I walked Cinque Terra in Italy without a pain. Three years in still completely pain free. Highly recommend.

How Your Custom Knee Brace Is Built for You
Assessment and Measurement
Trevor will do a 3D Scan and take precise measurements of your knee. Evaluating your alignment, range of motion, and the specific condition causing your pain. This data drives the design of your brace, so nothing is guessed.
Brace Recommendation
Based on your assessment, a suitable brace is recommended — not a generic model, but one matched to your diagnosis, activity level, and goals. You will understand exactly why that brace was chosen before anything
is ordered.
Insurance Coordination
Direct billing is now available. We'll contact your insurance provider on your behalf to verify your coverage, ensuring you have a clear understanding of any out-of-pocket costs before proceeding.
Fitting and Adjustment
When your custom brace arrives, it is fitted to your leg and adjusted for comfort and function. You leave with a brace that supports your knee properly – not one that slides, pinches, or restricts movement unnecessarily.
Conditions That Benefit from Custom Knee Bracing
Custom knee braces are designed to help manage a range of conditions, including:
-
Osteoarthritis of the knee (unicompartmental or bicompartmental)
-
ACL, MCL, PCL, or LCL ligament injuries

Post-surgical knee rehabilitation

Knee instability from cartilage or meniscus damage
