Get Back to Living a Normal, Active Life!
The Guardian Sport Rehabilitator™ is a new, clinically proven and non-invasive device that significantly reduces pain, corrects gait and strengthens the quadriceps and hamstrings, effectively delaying OA progression and potential need for total knee replacement. If surgery becomes necessary, it should be used before and after the operation to strengthen the leg to accelerate recovery and improve patient outcome.
Easy To Use! - Wear just 2-3 hours per day.

How does it work?
Guardian Sport Rehabilitator™ achieves these results with a patented extension swing assist and pneumatic air components that no other wearable rehab technology offers.
- Rotating thigh cuff provides superior comfort and support
- Patented dynamic dual SWING ASSIST™ facilitates initial swing phase of gait assisting the quadriceps with knee extension.
- Unique adjustable pneumatic bladder system distracts and supports the knee join, reducing pain and inflammation while providing exceptional support.
- ROM control hinge allows for precise control of extension and flexion if needed.

For Clinicians
Total Knee Replacement (TKA) Prehabilitaton & Post Surgery
- Provides gait correcting, leg strengthening rehabilitative therapy to pre-habilitate a weakened OA leg prior to Total Knee Replacement (TKA) surgery. When applied several weeks prior to TKA, the weakened OA leg can be significantly strengthened and gait can be normalized prior to the surgery to accelerate recovery and improve overall patient outcomes. Post surgically, the brace is used to manage pain and inflammation and to eliminate quadriceps avoidance gait to accelerate recovery.
- Gait correcting, leg strengthening, ambulating Rehabilitator™ therapy is clinically proven to accelerate recovery from knee injury / surgery or to strengthen a weakened leg. The pneumatic air bladders on both sides of the knee joint provide excellent medial, lateral, and rotational control of the knee. When inflated, the air bladders provide therapeutic compression at the knee to reduce or eliminate knee pain and to effectively manage knee joint inflammation. The active swing assist eliminates quadriceps avoidance gait, increasing quadriceps firing to significantly increase quad strength over time. The gait correcting, leg strengthening Sport Rehabilitator™ can accelerate recovery post injury / surgery by up to 50%.
- The Sport Rehabilitator™ uses pneumatic control of the knee joint, allowing the brace to be significantly lower profile than competitive ligament braces. The 11-inch-long Sport Rehabilitator™ has a semi-rigid frame and a rotating anterior thigh cuff. The lower profile design combined with the flexible frame and air bladder system provides superior comfort and brace migration control.
- For Total Knee Replacement pre-habilitation, the Sport Rehabilitator™ is provided 4 to 12 weeks prior to surgery to strengthen the weakened OA leg and normalize gait prior to the surgery. Case studies demonstrate superior leg strength after 6 weeks of Sport Rehabilitator™ use compared to 6 weeks of home exercise or physical therapy prior to TKA surgery. Optimal leg strengthening pre-surgery should include Rehabilitator™ use as well as home exercise or physical therapy.
