Model # AchilloTrain Ankle Brace
 
Overview:
In cases of pain or inflammation in the Achilles tendon (e.g. due to excessive strain or after operations), the AchilloTrain® orthopedic brace helps to relieve the Achilles tendon without restricting mobility. An anatomically contoured insert (pad) produces a massage effect, thus stimulating the surrounding tissue. An integral heel cushion relieves the tendon. Edemas and effusions can thus subside more quickly.
Anatomically optimal shape
Breathable material
Promotes circulation
 
Specifications:

Three-dimensional Train active knit - for a perfect fit
Contoured insert - Running along the Achilles tendon, the pad distributes the pressure uniformly.
High elasticity - makes the support easy to put on and take off
Stretchy knit material - Breathable and comfortable fabric is machine-washable in the gentle cycle, which helps maintain its elasticity and original fit.
Pressure-reduced edges - Ensures comfortable fit without constricting movement, bunching or slipping. Improves circulation.
 
PAIN IN THE HEELS
AchilloTrain has a three-fold therapeutic effect: the brace alleviates pain and activates the musculature. A pad running along the Achilles tendon distributes the pressure uniformly but does not reduce wearing comfort. The massage effect stimulates the metabolism and helps to reduce edemas. An integral visco-elastic wedge further relieves the Achilles tendon.
 
ALL-ROUND GOOD TO YOUR FOOT
Thanks to the especially stretchy, three-dimensional anatomical knit, AchilloTrain sits optimally even in the instep. The breathable material prevents the accumulation of moisture. The integral heel wedge is removable and a separate heel cushion is provided for the unaffected leg to offset the length difference. AchilloTrain reduces the risk of another ankle joint in-jury.
 
Indications:
Achillodynia (paratendinitis, tendinitis, Achilles bursitis e.g. in Haglund's deformity)
Follow-up treatment of Achilles tendon ruptures
