Osteoarthritis of the knee is the most common form of arthritis affecting Canadians. Until now, there was nothing short of joint replacement surgery to help deal with the pain. Now, there is a unique device available from Bionicare: the Knee system; a knee brace that can help manage knee osteoarthritis symptoms, allowing you to regain mobility and get back to living an active life.
The Bionicare Knee System uses a unique technology that delivers a low-level pulsed electrical signal to the knee joint that the wearer does not feel, in order to lessen the effects of osteoarthritis of the knee. The signal generator contained in the Bionicare Knee System helps mimic the impulses of a normal knee, providing effective relief from knee osteoarthritis symptoms, giving the wearer the ability to move and be active without suffering.

So far, more than 80,000 patients have been treated with the Bionicare Knee System with no significant side effects. If you suffer from moderate to severe knee arthritis pain, have tried pain medication and injections and find that nothing works, a Bionicare Knee System might be the solution for you.
Osteoarthritis of the knee is a degenerative joint disease that wears away the protective cartilage of the joint. Age, injury and everyday wear and tear are typical causes of debilitating arthritis pain. As the protective cartilage lining becomes damaged, the underlying bone is exposed causing inflammation, pain, limited mobility, and limited function. People over the age of 50 are more likely to develop osteoarthritis of the knee, especially individuals who are overweight, do not exercise and lead generally sedentary lifestyles.
Knee osteoarthritis symptoms can include:
• Joint pain, stiffness and tenderness
• Limited range of motion
• Cracking or grinding noises accompanying movement
• Inflammation and swelling of the knee
• Bony enlargement of the knee
Many physicians suggest exercise in order to deal with the symptoms, but many sufferers believe that exercise can make their symptoms worse. That is not the case. In addition to consulting a physician, individuals should seek the advice of a physiotherapist to learn the correct way to exercise in order to deal with the pain of arthritis. Doing nothing will ensure that the condition will progressively become worse; leaving knee replacement surgery as the only option for dealing with the pain.
If you are looking for a non-surgical solution to help with knee osteoarthritis symptoms, the Bionicare Knee System could be what you need. Many Canadians are attempting to lessen the amount of prescription medications they take, and are unwilling to endure prolonged wait times for surgery to correct an arthritic knee. If you are one of those sufferers looking to regain your active lifestyle, Bionicare's solution can help reduce your pain and get you back to doing the activities you enjoy.
