Back on Track STRAPZ is a new series of joint and muscle supports characterised by their elastic straps for easy, quick adjustment—a feature that also has given the collection its name.
All products are made from a finely knitted, firm two-way stretch material containing minerals. The minerals reflect Far Infrared Energy (FIR) from the wearer’s body heat. This textile technology – Welltex® – is known for its ability to stimulate circulation and increase blood flow.
While STRAPZ supports and relieves, Welltex® works deep within the tissues. The effect of Welltex® can help alleviate symptoms such as stiffness, swelling, and discomfort caused by, for example, overexertion or osteoarthritis.
There are many different causes of everyday aches and discomfort in joints and muscles - but problems often occur in certain specific locations: wrists, elbows, ankles, and shoulders. Consequently, the STRAPZ collection is developed to specifically target these vulnerable areas.
STRAPZ includes various supportive and protective products intended to be worn over joints that often become overloaded and overstrained. A prominent feature of the collection is the straps, which make the joint and muscle supports highly adjustable in terms of both fit and level of compression.
The collection unites the best of two worlds: on one hand, the protectors provide light and comfortable support, and on the other hand, they contain Welltex®, which contributes the effect of Far Infrared Energy (FIR). Wearing a joint and muscle support that combines Welltex® with relief can alleviate symptoms such as soreness, stiffness, and swelling. The effect of FIR is considered particularly beneficial for people suffering from osteoarthritis.
Shoulder Pain? A Welltex® bolero is finally here!
The STRAPZ Shoulder Support in a bolero style is designed to relieve stiffness, tension, and discomfort in the shoulders. It envelops both the shoulders and the surrounding area: upper arms, and the upper part of the spine.
The garment is anatomically shaped for a close, soft, and comfortable fit. It is worn like a small jacket and closes at the front using an elastic band with a hook-and-loop fastening. All materials contain FIR-reflecting minerals. The effect of FIR is well known for promoting circulation and softening tense, shortened, and cold muscles—which in turn can reduce tension, increase well-being, and contribute to relaxation.
It is very common to experience shoulder pain—both through active overexertion and through imperceptible tensing during sedentary work. The former is often the result of heavy lifting or repetitive movements, while the latter easily arises in front of the computer, as the muscles constantly fight gravity in a static and locked position. Aching shoulders are also common during anxiety, when the tension is primarily caused by stress.
The result, however, is the same: the shoulders are subjected to an overwhelming strain they are not designed for, and the sensitive structures—joints, tendons, and muscles—signal this through stiffness and pain. The effect of FIR is beneficial and pleasant, but it does not replace the important advice to move the shoulders periodically and correct a poor working posture!
Elbow Pain? STRAPZ provides immediate relief
The STRAPZ Elbow Support is an anatomically knitted joint and muscle support that includes a dome-shaped gel pad. The support combines the effect of Welltex® with the material's pleasant firmness and the gel pad's targeted, relieving pressure. The pressure from the gel pad and the level of compression can be easily adjusted using the strap.
Overexertion of the elbow has a great capacity to create problems in daily life. Tennis elbow, for example—one of the most common painful conditions affecting the elbow—can make even the simplest tasks difficult to perform. The same applies to "mouse arm." If one single structure is sufficiently stressed over a long period, it can suddenly become difficult to use the arm at all.
The Elbow Support is intended to relieve discomfort in the elbow caused by, for example, overexertion, wear and tear, or tissue damage. The gel pad is placed over the area requiring acute relief, while the support itself envelops and stabilises the area around the elbow joint. The material's Welltex® content can increase comfort by stimulating blood flow and reduce muscle tension.
Pain in your wrist or ankle? A simple and practical STRAPZ support can provide relief
The joint and muscle supports for the wrist and ankle are easy-to-use and uncomplicated products designed to relieve discomfort and reduce the load on the joints and surrounding muscles and tendons. Both the wrist and ankle supports are anatomically knitted to fit snugly around the joint. They combine light support with the effect of Far Infrared Energy (FIR). All materials contain Welltex® – our FIR technology, known for its ability to stimulate circulation and blood flow.
The beneficial effect can help reduce stiffness, swelling, and symptoms of inflammation in muscles, tendon attachments, or joints.
The supports are made from a firm two-way stretch material, and the wrist support also feature a thin inner lining. The firmness and compression level can be easily adjusted with the elastic strap, which is fastened with hook-and-loop.
