Built for bodies with a few years on them

Dad was 58 the year he started taking the long way around the house. Nothing dramatic had happened — no fall, no accident. His knees had simply done a few decades of work, and they'd started sending the bill.

The advice he got was the advice a lot of Australians get: it's your age. After that the options were painkillers, a waitlist, or a few thousand dollars of clinic sessions. Nobody offered him the simple thing in between — something practical he could put on in the morning and then forget about all day.

So we went looking for it. Not a cure and not a gadget: the everyday support tools physios actually use, made properly and priced so an ordinary family could own one. The knee strap came first, because the knee was Dad.

Then the emails started arriving, and most of them weren't about knees at all. They were about lower backs that seize up at the kitchen sink, necks stiff from thirty years at a desk, shoulders that complain the moment it gets cold. So we kept building — decompression, heat and compression for the lower back, targeted support for the knee, and more on the way.
