New Bauerfeind AchilloTrain Ankle Brace

Reduction of Achilles tendon problems, thanks to friction pad and heel wedge 

The AchilloTrain® orthopedic ankle brace helps to relieve the Achilles tendon without restricting mobility in cases of pain or inflammation (e.g. due to excessive strain or after operations). An anatomically contoured friction pad offers a targeted massage along the tendon, stimulating the surrounding muscles. The breathable, skin-friendly Train knit material offers compressive support that adapts perfect to the shape of the foot.

 KEY FEATURES:

• Medical Ccl 1 (20-30 mmHg)
• Integrated viscoelastic friction pad with massage points

INDICATIONS FOR USE:

• Achillodynia (tendinosis, paratendinitis, bursitis subachillea)
• Haglund’s deformity
• Chronic, post-traumatic or post-operative irritation (e.g. in the case of Achilles tendon ruptures) 

BENEFITS AND MODES OF ACTION

• The pad ensures a uniform applicaiton of pressure and exerts a massage effect during movement, improving the local metabolism and reducing edema.
• The integrated tendon pad is viscoelastic and antomically contoured
• Targeted intermittent compression is used to improve muscle control and movement coordination

STABILITY AND FREEDOM OF MOVEMENT

The AchilloTrain® ankle brace offers a therapeutically effective combination of stabilization and mobility. The continuous transition between compression and decompression during movement promotes healing and improves the interaction of nerves and muscles. This is assisted by the visco-elastic friction pad with targeted massage nubs. When moving, the pad exerts a gentle alternating pressure massage in conjunction with the knitted fabric. This aims to improve local metabolism and stimulate the muscles.

COMFORTABLE AND GENTLE ON THE SKIN

The Train knit is characterized by it's medical compression and high breathability. It's anatomical shape adapts perfectly to the foot and follows every movement without slipping. The reduced pressure edges of the AchilloTrain® ankle brace are soft and elastic so that they do not constrict. The brace is extra short in the foot area to avoid pressure on the 5th metatarsal bone. The lightweight and slim design allow the brace to be worn comfortably under your stockings and in shoes. The recessed grips on the upper edge of the pad make it easier to put on and take off.
