MULTI-PATENTED TECHNOLOGY
Our dynamic arm stabilizers feature the multi-patented MuscleWeb® design, a flexible polymer network that mimics natural anatomical function to help externally reinforce muscles, ligaments and joints without restricting movement. This strategic design provides targeted, multi-directional support and stabilization to the shoulder and elbow during repetitive arm movements. It is bio-mechanically engineered to help maintain safer ranges of motion and reduces arm stress, making it ideal for activities and sports involving repetitive arm actions.
MUSCLEWEB® DESIGN
FEATURES
Our MuscleWeb® design incorporates a custom weave construction with strategically placed polymers overlaying the shoulder and elbow, engineered to support and mimic natural anatomical function. This cutting-edge technology provides targeted support to the elbow and shoulder when the arm is in passive ranges, where peak stress is highest. This web network of polymers helps to reinforce joints, muscles and connective tissue structures, to help promote safer and more efficient arm movements to help minimize stress that can lead to fatigue, pain, or overuse injury.
WHY WEARING COMBINED ELBOW & SHOULDER SUPPORT IS ESSENTIAL
Kinetic Arm provides combined elbow and shoulder support which is essential due to the interconnected nature of these joints, and the compensation patterns that can occur during dynamic arm movements.
- Compensation Patterns: When one part of the arm is unsupported, other parts often compensate to manage the load, leading to improper mechanics and increased stress. For example, insufficient shoulder support can lead to increased elbow strain and vice versa.
- Integrated Movement: The shoulder and elbow work together during repetitive arm movements such as throwing, swinging, hitting and serving. Proper alignment and support for both joints ensure that the entire arm functions optimally, helping to reduce the risk of arm overuse injuries
- Enhanced Arm Stability: Providing targeted support and stabilization to both joints helps promote cleaner and safer arm movement patterns. This stability is particularly important during high-stress phases of arm motion, such as the acceleration and deceleration phases during dynamic arm movements.
- Aids in Injury Prevention: By stabilizing both the shoulder and elbow, the Kinetic Arm reduces dynamic arm stress to help prevent common overuse injuries that result from compensatory movements. This comprehensive support and stability aids in maintaining proper biomechanics, reducing the likelihood of common arm overuse injuries.
Comprehensive dynamic arm support
ANTERIOR SHOULDER SUPPORT
Strategically placed polymers overlay the anterior part of the shoulder to give multi-directional support to the joint, muscles, and ligaments during dynamic arm movements. The MuscleWeb® design is engineered to stretch and move with the arm while giving essential supportive tension that helps aid in stabilizing the anterior shoulder when in the weakest ranges and offloading stress from the musculoskeletal system. When the arm is rotates forward during dynamic arm motions these polymers help to offload stress from the biceps tendon and labrum by not letting the arm lag behind as the trunk rotates. This layer of external support helps stabilize the front side of the shoulder during passive ranges to help reduce stress that can lead to common overuse injuries in sites such as the biceps tendon, labrum and rotator cuff.
FULL ELBOW SUPPORT
Strategically placed polymers overlay the medial and lateral elbow, providing comprehensive targeted support to the joint, ligaments, and forearm muscles. During dynamic arm movements this MuscleWeb® design reinforces the elbow providing essential stabilization and targeted support to the medial elbow during external rotation and late cocking phases of arm movement such as throwing, swinging, hitting and serving. By externally stabilizing the elbow in passive ranges, where peak stress is the highest, it helps to reduce elbow torque and dynamic stress that can lead to common overuse injuries such as medial epicondylitis, UCL injuries, and avulsion fractures.
POSTERIOR SHOULDER SUPPORT
Strategically placed polymers overlay the posterior part of the shoulder, providing multi-directional support to the joint, muscles, and ligaments during dynamic arm movements. The MuscleWeb® design allows full range of motion while providing key support to the posterior shoulder to help minimize stress during the arm deceleration phase in movements such as throwing, swinging, serving and hitting. This web of support aids in offloading dynamic arm stress from the posterior shoulder by assisting in the eccentric control of the scapula and humerus. As muscles elongate on the posterior side during arm movements, the MuscleWeb® helps to offload distraction forces at the posterior shoulder and elbow by assisting with external support.
SCIENCE & DATA
TESTED & PROVEN
The Kinetic Arm is backed by data and published research. Studies have shown that wearing the Kinetic Arm significantly reduces elbow torque and dynamic arm stress.
With over 10 years of data collected from sports labs nationwide, all testing adhered to the highest standards using wearable IMU sensors and 3D motion capture technology.
This data has been thoroughly analyzed by both medical and research professionals. As a result, medical professionals recommend the Kinetic Arm for protection, recovery, and prevention.
