Balto Jump Knee Brace

This canine knee joint brace is an excellent remedy for canines experiencing restricted mobility as a result of damage to the CCL joint. This ventilated compression bandage, constructed from non-neoprene fabric, offers stability and assistance to your canine’s hind limbs while preserving their innate mobility. This knee brace is a superb choice for dogs requiring extra assistance while keeping an active lifestyle.

BRACE APPLICATIONS

• CCL tears (partial and full)
• Partial CCL tears can take about 6 months to stabilize, and up to a year to form mature scar tissue to stabilize the knee to regular function.
• Full CCL tears, depending on severity, can take up to a year to stabilize and an additional year to form mature scar tissue that can stabilize the knee to regular function.
• Post-surgical support (for surgeries such as TPLO, TTA, ELSS, and MPL)
• Structural support to injured or affected limbs
• Chronic canine knee pain management
• Complementary treatment option to physical therapy – can be used in combination with hydrotherapy and acupuncture
• Special circumstances or conservative treatment preference; bracing can be used as an alternative to surgery for ineligible surgical candidates.
• This brace can be used on healthy joints, muscles and ligaments to prevent injury and provide structural support.

BRACE FEATURES

• Two pockets which contain angled airplane aluminium splints (medial and lateral) that help restrict the lateral movement (also referred to as a drawer movement) of the knee when necessary.
• Abdominal band to ensure the brace is secured around the dog’s hind end.
• A third, additional stabilization strap is provided for more active animals.
• The brace can also be used without splints for conditions such as arthritis and arthrosis.
• Compression helps increase blood flow in the affected area, which helps reduce stiffness, pain, and inflammation
• Adjustable upper and lower padding straps can be lengthened or shortened on the leg to ensure an excellent fit

Using the Balto® Jump on both the left and right knees can also help with cases related to:

• Senior dogs as a result of general degenerative process
• Overweight dogs dealing with high pressure on their good leg
• Active dogs with an important compensation behaviour
• Comes in sizes xx-small through x-large, for a left or right orientation. Please note that the xx-small size can only be worn in female orientation (in small breeds this is okay for most males) and is unable to be connected to a second knee brace to provide bilateral support.
