Knee
We developed the Agilium Freestep 3.0 for the treatment of unicompartmental osteoarthritis of the knee. It is not applied to the knee, but to the foot and lower leg. The Agilium Freestep 3.0 specifically relieves the affected cartilage in the knee joint by shifting the load line in the knee. The load line describes the point where the body weight primarily impacts the cartilage.
Flexible calf shell
The calf shell of the Agilium Freestep 3.0 is extremely flexible and adapts to a wide range of leg shapes. The closure makes it easy to put on and take off.
Slimline design
The slim design of the Agilium Freestep 3.0 combines lightweight elements and maximum functionality. Discreet when worn under clothing, freedom of movement at the knee and no slipping – these are just a few of the outstanding characteristics.
Force-transferring foot stirrup
The foot stirrup transfers weight to the lower leg. This relieves the knee joint.
Flexible sole
The flexible sole is comfortable to wear and can be cut appropriately to fit any shoe by qualified personnel (e.g. O&P professional).
