"Unlike standard braces that simply support or compress the joint, KneeMo actively uses motion-sensing technology and vibration therapy to reduce pain in real time. The result is that people can stay active, preserve their independence, and avoid the physical and mental consequences of a sedentary lifestyle. What makes KneeMo unique is that it isn't just an idea-it's been rigorously developed and clinically tested at Stanford University in a peer-reviewed trial."
"The inspiration came from a fundamental question: could we move beyond passive support and actually change how people experience knee pain while in motion? Given KneeMo's distinctive design, we knew we needed to test whether it could make a measurable difference. We ran a rigorous placebo-controlled trial with patients experiencing documented knee pain. The "aha moment" came when we saw the results-patients were walking more easily and climbing stairs with less pain, sometimes after just a few steps."
KneeMo uses motion-sensing technology and vibration therapy to reduce knee pain in real time, unlike standard braces that only support or compress the joint. Clinical testing at Stanford included a rigorous placebo-controlled trial with patients experiencing documented knee pain. Trial participants showed immediate, visible improvements in function, walking more easily and climbing stairs with less pain after just a few steps. A soft launch occurred in 2024 followed by an official launch earlier this year. The device aims to keep people active, preserve independence, and prevent the physical and mental consequences of sedentary lifestyles. Company leadership focuses on translating science into accessible, impactful products.
