Functional knee braces with dynamic designs offer superior protection to knee joints after injuries or surgeries compared to conventional static functional knee braces. Recently developed dynamic posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) knee braces mitigate the impact of posterior translation of the tibia caused by an anterior force on the posterior proximal tibia. As a result, these braces help reduce unfavorable forces on the PCL and lessen the final posterior lag. Standard braces such as functional knee braces, unloader braces, and neoprene sleeves are being used more frequently in the treatment of chronic knee pain. They are also used to prevent injuries, accelerate recovery, and enhance physical and athletic performance. The widespread application of these braces is attributed to their consistent form for a long time. Although standard knee braces are widely used as a prevention and management aid against injuries and diseases, their primary purpose is to provide lateral stability or correct misaligned knee joint structures. These braces can go beyond structural support or alignment correction to increase leg muscular strength with technological advancements. Their application can improve knee joint function among healthy and injured people by employing modern technologies, making any movement—from basic daily tasks to weightlifting and cross-country skiing—easier.

The knee extensor assist (KEA) design is an example of a new bracing technology. Recently, efforts have been made to address and improve the role of musculature in promoting healthy knee function through knee bracing with augmented assistive device technology. Improved muscle strength can improve performance in athletes, land-based arm forces, and manual laborers by lessening fatigue. Technological advancements in orthotics are expected to drive the growth of the orthotic aids market.

Based on product type, the orthotic aids market is categorized into braces, body belts, and others. The braces segment held the largest market share in 2022, and the same segment is estimated to register the highest CAGR during 2022–2030. Body belts such as back traction belts, elastic back braces, copper belts, back pain belts, and back braces are commonly used to treat joint sprain, muscle strain, and injuries. Most people are likely to experience back pain at some point in their lives. While injuries and illnesses are among several causes of back pain, a vast percentage of cases result from improper lifting of heavy objects and poor posture. Wearing a back brace is a common method of preventing back pain and improving posture. According to Cross River Therapy, 8 out of 10 Americans report having back issues at least once or more frequently in a year. As per the same source, 80 million workers, or 50% of all employed Americans, report back pain annually.
