Whether your goal is return to training for your next marathon or simply get back to your daily jogging routine, recovering from common running injuries can be a challenge. Experiencing a painful injury—whether it’s a sprain, strain, knee cap tracking problems or runner’s knee—doesn’t have to keep you from living your passion every day.

Bauerfeind’s Train line of braces and supports feature a soft, precision-fit knit that provides medical grade compression to reduce pain and swelling that works together with strategically placed viscoelastic inserts that provide ultimate shock absorption and pain-relieving massage right where you need it.
