Our Actimove Sports Edition Range

The Sports Edition range from Actimove, researched and developed by BSN Medical, is expertly designed to ensure comfort and sturdy support when you are playing sports or taking part in any physically demanding activities. Actimove Sports Edition supports and braces have COOLMAX AIR technology that is a neoprene-free material similar to foam with an innovative design that keeps you cool and maximises comfort due to the breathability and air circulation. The Sports Edition Knee supports such as the Open Patella Knee Support are great for running or walking. If you are looking for stronger braces that will still help you keep active, the hinged knee brace and adjustable Knee supports can be used for Injury and Operation recovery such as ACL and MCL operations or general Knee injuries that require the joint to be stabilised. The Sports Edition range also includes a wide range of wrist supports ad elbow supports that are great for sports that demand a range of motion in the wrist and elbow such as Tennis and Golf. These supports, therefore, come in handy when playing a game of Tennis or Golf or if you’re recovering from an injury and need support for everyday activities without worrying about comfort. Thigh and Back Supports are also available in Actimove’s Sports Edition range. The Back and Shoulder Supports are amazing options for someone who has a lifting injury such as strain from deadlifts at the gym especially as these supports are typically quite large so excessive sweating (such as the sweat caused by neoprene supports) won’t be a concern with Actimove’s COOLMAX technology.

Actimove Sports Edition FAQs

Can you play sports with a knee brace or support?

Although a Knee brace might feel quite restrictive, it certainly helps restore a person’s confidence in their Knee, especially if the Knee brace is worn after a serious surgery or injury. You may find Knee supports without a hinge or straps to be more effective for sports that involve a lot of Knee mobility such as Football or running.

Can you play sports like golf with a Wrist brace or support on?

You can wear a Wrist brace for sports but avoid wrist splints and supports that are meant to restrict movement. For golf – a wrap-around wrist support can help support the joint and sports that involve impact such as gymnastics would benefit from a wrap-around or adjustable wrist support. 

How are Actimove Sports Edition Supports and Braces better than other similar brands?

Actimove Sports Edition makes use of COOLMAX AIR technology which unlike a lot of alternative supports and braces does not use Neoprene material. Neoprene is a latex-like material. Instead, the supports and braces are lined with medically designed breathability to ensure your skin can 'breathe' which reduces sweating considerably and ensures comfort during physical activities such as sports and workouts.
