My knees were killing me… until I discovered the ‘miracle’ knee support”

Ex-teacher walks again without pain!

- By BRIAN WARD

WHEN HER physiother­apist told retired teacher and outdoor enthusiast, Mary Carlson that she must stop her long walks, she was devastated. She had spent much of her life fell walking in the Lake District and the Highlands and spent over 30 years running The Duke of Edinburgh Award for pupils at her school. She said “I was devastated to hear that I had to stop my fell walking, it has been my whole life. I was only 61 and had planned to spend a lot more time walking now that I had retired.”

Mary told us how her knee problems started and how they had gradually affected her everyday life: “Considerin­g how active I am, it was the simple act of getting out of the car in the supermarke­t car park that caused the initial problem. I was in a hurry, twisted awkwardly and fell. Apart from the sheer embarrassm­ent, it left me with painful swollen knees, particular­ly my right knee. I assumed I would shake it off in time, however, the pain didn’t go away”. In fact her pain got steadily worse and reached the point where she struggled walking even short distances and had trouble getting up and down stairs. Simply getting out of a chair was difficult so, in the end, she had to make some changes to her lifestyle and sadly after advice from her physio, she stopped her long walks and playing golf. Even taking the grandchild­ren to the park was too painful.

She tried all kinds of gels, supplement­s and knee supports, but nothing provided the relief or support she needed and over time, she lost her confidence. All her dreams and expectatio­ns of retirement had disappeare­d.

Mary had pretty much given up hope of continuing with her active life, “I’m only 61 but felt like a little old lady struggling to get around” that was until four months ago when she discovered

“Now I’ve got my life back again!”

a knee support that promised to fix her knees. “I read an advert in a newspaper for the Active-3 Knee Support and it seemed to answer all of my problems. I admit that I was a bit sceptical at first, but the knee support came with a noquibble, money-back guarantee and a 90-day home trial, I decided to give it a go, I had nothing to lose.”

“I was hoping that just maybe my prayers would be answered this time.” Her knee problems had a major impact on her everyday life and particular­ly the loss of her fell walking. She said “It was so frustratin­g not being able to get about so easily and feeling like I was getting old well before my time.” However, life has since completely turned around for her.

“What a revelation! As soon as the knee support arrived I gave it a go,” she says. “It was a breeze to put on, easy to adjust and very comfortabl­e to wear. I went straight out to pick up the grandchild­ren and took them to the park,

WOW, after months of discomfort I felt like I had brand new knees!”

She has been so impressed with the Active-3 Knee Support that she now recommends it to family, friends and just anyone else she meets along the way! “I’ve got my old life back, and hopefully I can help a few others too”
