Ankle sprain

Most of us was suffered from ankle sprain in our life. If you feel pain and your joint is swollen, probably you torn your ligaments, what’s very dangerous for your ankle stability!

Types of ankle sprains:

Inversion – is the most common cause of an ankle sprain and occurs when the ankle rolls outward and the foot turns inward. It results in stretching and tearing of the ligaments on the outside of the ankle.

Eversion – is less commonly and occurs when the ankle rolls inward and the foot turns outward. It damages the ligaments at the inside of the ankle.

The high ankle sprain – is the least common and occurs when the foot is forced to rotate toward the outside or when the foot is planted so it can’t move and the leg is rotated toward the inside.

Unfortunately, once ankle sprain can be repeated while every small activity. Also, it causes chronic pain and joint weakness. What’s more, repetitive ankle sprain makes the daily life harder.

MATERIALS

ActiveSpace™

ActiveSpace™ is a spacer, polyamide 3D lamination with high skin ventilation. It is very lightweight, consisted of 2 layers. Between them, we use polyamide braids. ActiveSpace™ is not elastic what improves stabilization. Inside the lamination, between 2 layers, the air flows freely, maintaining minimal water and moisture absorption. Waterproof material.

AeroSpace™

AeroSpace™ is an innovative new generation raw material. It is a distance elastic 3D knitted fabric consisting of two layers of facings and an interlacing that creates the appropriate thickness of the raw material and has relieving properties. The knitwear is made of the highest quality polyester yarn - guaranteeing high mechanical strength and spandex ensuring its proper flexibility. This material is characterized by a very low weight, high flexibility and a very large openwork structure, allowing for very easy drainage of sweat from the body and bringing fresh air to the skin. Products made of this raw material are neutral to the secured joint, do not heat or cool it, but ensure its proper compression and fit and reduce muscle vibrations generated during physical exertion. Its thickness and 3D structure perfectly relieves the orthopedic splints, stays or other elements mounted on the product and guarantees velvety softness to the touch.

CODURA®

CODURA® is extreme durable lamination made of polyamide with polyurethane layer and Teflon finishing. Structure of fabrics and method of milling make the fabric lightweight but very resistant to damages and extreme conditions. External layer is covered by Teflon. Our devices made of CODURA® are the thinnest and the most durable on the market. Waterproof material.

STIFFENINGS

Ankle support

The ankle support is made of ABS material. It has an anatomical shape and longitudinal cuts, thanks to which it is very easy to shape in the horizontal axis and maintains high stiffness in the vertical axis. Such a construction allows the ankle brace to easily adjust to the shape of the lower leg, and thanks to the vertical cutouts, the patient's skin is supplied with air. The support also has holes through which the orthosis laces are installed, thanks to which the lacing is effective and secure.
