Cho-Pat ITB Strap Large

Iliotibial Band (ITB) Strap Cho-Pat's new I.T.B. Strap will apply compression at the area of discomfort to help relieve Iliotibial Band Syndrome. The strap uses compression to help prevent the snapping or friction of the iliotibial band over the bony prominence just above and outside of the knee joint or further up the leg at the hip joint allowing the healing process to begin. The I.T.B. Strap is recognized as an effective addition to the treatment procedures for Iliotibial Band Syndrome. As such, while it may alleviate the symptoms of Iliotibial Band Syndrome, the cause of the affliction may still be present. It is suggested the user seek evaluation and treatment by a medical professional in conjunction with the band's use. Ideally, the user should wear the strap nearest the area of most discomfort. However, the user can wear it approximately 2" - 3" in either direction with beneficial results. Warning: Wear tight enough to attain relief but not impede circulation and normal leg movement. Do not wear to bed.

  • Available in sizes for more effective and specific results.

  • Measure around leg at place of most pain. XS: 12-15", SM: 15-19", MD: 19-21", LG: 21-23", XL: 23-26"

  • Helps relieve the pain and discomfort of Iliotibial Band Syndrome (ITBS).

  • Uses compression to help prevent the snapping or friction of the iliotibial band.

  • Easy to apply and adjust. Durable and washable.

2There are better products for this...  Apr 20, 2008
By C. Ellingwood
I have ITBS and ordered three different compression straps off the internet. This one I give the lowest review, because unlike the other two products, this one did not stay in the correct position on my thigh to provide compression. Due to its lower elasticity, it falls from three inches above knee cap down to right above the knee cap in just a few minutes of exercize. Though the hardware looks great, this product just didn't work for me, and I suspect, for most people.

The other two products are the ProTec - IT Band Wrap which gets my highest review - see the product page. The PatStrap gets my second place vote, only inferior to the ProTec product in that it is a thinner band that feels more restrictive. It also eats my leg hairs when I take it off!

I recommend the 'ProTec - IT Band Wrap'.

2There are better options out there  Nov 06, 2007
By C. Poole
Don't waste your time with this thing. The material is soft and doesn't stay put on your leg. There's another product that I picked up that's made out of neoprene. Something like that works much better.

4Very Useful  Mar 01, 2008
By John Rucker
After knee surgery, this ITB strap has been very useful in helping to keep my knee cap stabilized. Plus it's light weight and thin.

5Helped with the pain  Jan 08, 2011
By JBo
This seemed to help a lot with my IT Band pain. I also used a knee brace with long runs so not sure if it was the brace or the IT Strap, but the pain eased.
