How does the Knee on Trac Therapy System work?

The Knee on Trac System gently separates the joint space between the two major bones of the leg, the femor and tibia, or otherwise known as the thigh bone and shin bone. It uses precise tension calculations to increase the space between the joint bones. This increased space makes room in the joint for nutrient rich fluid that aids in the healing and joint cushioning. The stretching it provides also gently stretches out the tendons, ligaments and other soft tissue in the knee that help with range of motion and healing of these soft tissues.
