The corporate site explains that the GenuTrain active support consists of an anatomically contoured knit and an integral, ring-shaped, functional visco-elastic cushion - the Omega pad. It relieves pain by providing the therapeutic pressure of support from the kneecap to the soft tissues of the knee.

Unfortunately, when I felt knee pain again recently and wore it to BJJ, I noticed the stainless steel stay on the inside portion of the brace had protruded from the fabric and had to be pushed back into place.
