This ensures we have very little staff turnover, so the quality of our products is consistently higher. Townsend also uses traditional fabrication techniques. Our custom and pre-sized knee braces are hand made and hand assembled using the lightest, most rigid materials available. The brace must be easy to put on. And it must stay on.
Some braces have complex instructions for putting on the brace.
One company has had so many problems that they now print numbers on their straps so patients can figure out the correct strapping sequence. There are no complicated fitting instructions with the Townsend brace. The factor that most often compromises the effectiveness and convenience of a knee brace is migration. A brace that slips down your leg and constantly needs to be repositioned and restrapped is not convenient. If the brace is properly fitted and won't stay up, we'll take it back.
