When can I use the thigh support?
The upper leg and thigh is largely made up of quads and hamstrings which contribute to all leg movements like walking, running, cycling and squatting. The hamstrings and quads are therefore often susceptible to torn, strained or pulled muscle injuries which without support and compression can be painful.
The Bearhug Thigh support is designed to be comfortable to wear all day whether at home or work and discreetly under clothes if required. It can be worn to support you while walking around or resting to helping to reduce inflammation and swelling.
The Bearhug bamboo Thigh support provides compression to the hamstring, quad and thigh increasing blood flow, enhancing performance, assisting with rehabilitation and recover.
The increased blood flow while being worn can help accelerate the recovery and rehabilitation muscles pulls, strains and tears while also helping alleviate pain from delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS).
Some sports & activities that thigh support can be useful for:
- Running
- Walking
- Cycling
- Football
- Hockey
- Rugby
- Triathlon
- Gymnastics
- Weightlifting
This increased blood flow drives oxygenated blood to the thigh joint flushing out any toxins in the thigh and lower leg which helps your muscle, ligaments, tendons and soft tissue repair quicker while providing pain relief and reducing inflammation and swelling from sports like running.
