The Difference

Why Patients Choose RecoveryX

Most brace providers focus on the brace.
RecoveryX focuses on the person wearing it.

Every recommendation is based on:

  • Your injury or condition
  • Your activity level
  • Your recovery stage
  • Your goals
  • Your lifestyle and sport demands

The result is a bracing solution that fits your recovery — not just your joint.

Why Custom?

Custom vs. Off-the-Shelf

Generic braces are sized for the average person — not you. A custom brace is measured and fit to your exact anatomy, ensuring proper alignment, real support, and lasting comfort throughout your rehabilitation.

Patient Stories

What Our Patients Say

"

After my ACL reconstruction, RecoveryX fitted me with a custom brace. Compared to the generic one I had before — night and day. It actually fits, doesn't slip, and gave me the confidence to get back on the ice.

My OA knee brace changed my life. I went from barely walking to getting back on the golf course in weeks. Sami took the time to explain exactly why this brace works — I felt like I was in expert hands.

Twisted my ankle playing basketball and needed real support to get back. RecoveryX fitted me with a Bauerfeind ankle brace and walked me through rehab at the same time. Back on court in 6 weeks.

FAQ

Common Questions

Does my insurance cover a custom brace?

+

Some extended health benefit plans cover custom bracing under orthotics or bracing coverage — though this varies by plan. We provide all receipts and documentation you need to submit a reimbursement claim to your insurer.

How long does it take to get a custom brace?

+

After your assessment and fitting, most braces are ready within 1–3 weeks depending on the type and supplier. Rush options may be available for urgent cases.

Do I need a referral?

+

No referral is required to book with us. However, your insurer may require a physician's prescription for reimbursement — we'll advise you on this during your appointment.

What's the difference between a custom and off-the-shelf brace?

+

Off-the-shelf braces are sized for the average anatomy and often slip or don't provide adequate support. A custom brace is measured and fit to your exact body — providing superior alignment, comfort, and clinical effectiveness.

Do you only do knee braces?

+

Not at all. We supply and fit braces for all body regions including knee, ankle, back, shoulder, elbow, and wrist. If you have a brace need, we can assess and source the right option.

Which brands do you carry?

+

We primarily work with Bauerfeind, Medi, and DonJoy — three of the most trusted names in orthopaedic bracing. Your Physiotherapist will recommend the best option for your specific condition.

Can I wear the brace during sports?

+

Yes. Sport-specific braces are designed for exactly this — lightweight, low-profile, and built for movement. We'll match you to the right brace for your sport, whether hockey, basketball, skiing, or running.
