ABSTRACT:
A pivotable brace for adjustably supporting a user's joint, such as a knee joint, at a variety of different angles as desired. The restraint imposed by this brace upon the joint can also be released thereby permitting the joint to further bend or flex as needed but which will return to its original setting by returning the joint back to its originally braced position. Preferably, a pair of such braces will be secured to opposite sides of the joint to be braced for maximum support and restraint.
