So I was asked by Somnishop to try out and review one of the health products that they sell and I thought it was a perfect opportunity because using a knee cuff would really help my knees to recuperate after exercise and the hockey training that I do as I often have alot of aches in my knee joints as they are the joint that holds the most physical weight of your body during running on the pitch or at the gym.
Size?
The sizing given is pretty accurate and the material is stretchy, its based on measuring your thigh a hands width above you knee to get the right size for you. I chose a medium and it fitted perfectly.
Appearance?
The
design of the cuffs are simple and practical, with just the brand logo on the
front, this isn’t an issue as this product is best and advised to be worn at
night during the sleeping period when you are most still, to get the full use
of the smart materials massaging your joints therefore appearance is not as important at practical use of the product.
How it worked
for me?
The cuff kept my knee joints warm after I had
done 2 hours’ worth of exercise during
the day, I put them on before I went to bed, the ventilation was very good and
did not make it uncomfortable or too warm to wear. The materials used are soft
and stretchy and therefore are comfortable against the skin and do not restrict
any movement in your legs during the night.
Comfort?
The
materials used to create the products are super soft which is good because
wearing them at night it will need to be as comfortable as possible. The smart material
used to create the cuffs aid ventilation through the night ensuring that your
skin under the cuff has a non-sweaty sleep. The sponge material create a soft bed like state for the knee to rest on in the cuff.
Ease of use?
Very easy to use you just slide on the leg and pull up to the knee and fasten to your own preferred
tightness using the Velcro straps,
Does it
achieve its purpose?
So far in my opinion I do believe the knee
cuff helps to aid and prevent aches after sport, its comfortable to wear and
has definitely had a positive impact on my knees in the short term however I will carry on
using it for the long term and do an updated opinion of the knee cuff in a
couple of months when my hockey season has started and I will be using the product more often to prevent knee aches and swelling after the training and matches.
I highly reccomend this product to anyone that does vigorous sport exercises and experiences aches in their joints after sport, the customer service is also super friendly and cooperative to any questions or requirements you have.
