Frequently Asked Questions

Why does NuNee work?

It's really very simple...it relieves the pressure on your patella (knee cap). Clinical studies have shown that relieving the pressure relieves the pain for nearly 9 of 10 people with anterior knee pain. NuNee is unique from common compression braces, sleeves, and wraps because its the ONLY bracing system that relieves pressure on the patella. 
 

Will NuNee help me?

NuNee is clinically proven to provide immediate relief and restore knee function for nearly 9 of 10 people suffering from the symptoms of anterior knee pain (aching, burning, stiffness around the kneecap), including Patellofemoral Pain Syndrome (aka Runner's Knee). It can also help relieve the symptoms of Patella Tendonitis (Jumper's Knee) and Patella Arthritis.

NuNee should be worn during any activity that provokes knee pain or discomfort.
 

How long do the knee patches last?

Our small "Everyday" patches are single use and should be removed and replaced after each training or rehab session. Our large "Endurance" patches are intended for long training sessions and hot/humid training conditions. They are waterproof and can worn for 3-5 days. 
 

Is NuNee comfortable?

Is NuNee durable?

Yes. NuNee has withstood the rigors of Ironman training and competition. We think that’s a pretty solid test of its durability. It comes with a 90-Day Warranty.
