Shepherds’ Health are delighted to announce our new partnership with Össur UK
We are now the Össur knee brace fitting centre in the South East of England, covering Essex, Hertfordshire, Cambridge, Norfolk and Suffolk.
We are able to provide knee braces for self paying customers as well as insured customers. So if you have AXA, Bupa or such medical insurance, these companies will cover the cost of your knee brace when your Consultant recommends one to you.
The Össur knee braces have been built on decades of experience and are designed to enhance the quality of life of people living with osteoarthritis by reducing pain and improving mobility.
The Össur Unloader® brand name has become synonymous with osteoarthritis bracing, with more than 15 clinical studies demonstrating its efficacy.
Please check out the diagram below to explain how they work.
