Why are online bracing products less expensive than the ones purchased in a physician office?

When you purchase your brace online, there are certain services and benefits that you won’t receive. Services that you will receive from your medical professional in the office but not from your online retailer may include:

assessing your medical condition to determine the most appropriate brace
measuring you to determine the appropriate brace size
assessing brace fit
billing your insurance company for the brace
in person brace return or exchange if necessary

Comparing the cost of a device online vs. the cost of the same device provided in a medical professional’s office is not a valid comparison. As the consumer, you have to decide what is right for you and consider the trade-offs. Sure, online products tend to be less expensive – but you also lose the important services and benefits outlined above. Please make your decision carefully and, when in doubt, consult your medical provider and insurance company.

Hi,
I am an avid skier, and I play basketball and soccer a lot. Will this brace fit with a ski boot and will I be to lift weights such as squats or lunges with this brace on? I have a history of knee sprains and hyper extensions due to sports. Will this brace be helpful in the future to prevent further injuries?

Question by: Shasawat Kumar on Dec 15, 2013, 11:56 PM

Shasawat
Thank you for contacting DJO. The brace length is 15" so it should be fine with ski boots. This brace will help to prevent injuries during your activities.

What is the difference between neoprene and spacer as far as material goes?

Question by: bill on Dec 16, 2013, 11:10 AM

Bill
Thank you for contacting DJo. The spacer material is a lighter material that is also breathable. It is thinner than neoprene and not as heavy. It won't collect sweat like neoprene can do.

I am trying to decide between the playmaker and the playmaker 2. I think a wraparound brace would be easier to put on. Is the playmaker 2 a slip on or wraparound brace?

Question by: Shawn on Aug 31, 2013, 8:16 PM

The Playmaker 2 is a sleeve, the wrap around model is not on better braces as of yet. The wrap around style is much easier to put on.

I damaged by ACL several years ago why skiing. My rehab went fine. I did not need surgery. As my doctor said is was only a little loose. I am thinking of taking up skiing again and I am looking for a brace. What are the pro's and con's of the Playmaker and Playmaker II for skiing. Is one better than the other. also what is the Patella donut and would it apply.

Question by: Bill H. on Dec 21, 2013, 9:17 PM

Hello Bill,

The Playmaker II is available with the New Spacer Mesh material, and rubber tips on the straps. This is the only difference between the two braces. The Playmaker is 16" long, the medial and lateral hinge bar will provide medial and lateral support. The Spacer material is our most breathable material, followed by Drytex, and then Neoprene. This brace also provides Mild Support to the ACL. If you need ACL support I recommend a Rigid Knee Brace.

My son is 13 years old and an agressive running fullback. He recently suffered a moderate MCL strain. He is expected to be cleared to play again in about 2 weeks. I am considering buying him the playmaker 2 brace to give him added stability when he returns to play. My question is do you know if this brace is compliant with high school football rules. Specifically they can not have any exposed metal on the brace.

Thanks!

Question by: Hugh on Sep 16, 2013, 5:52 PM

The hinge of the brace should be abve the bottom of the pants, the rest of that hinge is in the brace itself so the metal is not exposed.

Answer by: Admin on Sep 16, 2013, 5:52 PM
