• Removable straps (color coded for fit) accelerate the reduction of the oedema
• Velcro straps with elastic parts ensuring an accurate adjustment to the calf shape
• Reinforced tightening system on the lower strap improving ankle immobilisation
• Soft, width adjustable heel strap, with right/left marker, preserving dorsi and plantar flexion

Indication

• Functional treatment of moderate to serious strains of the external lateral ligaments
• Resumption of activities and of sport activities after moderate to severe spains.

Fitting Instructions

1. Adjust the height of the strap underneath the heel in order to place the medial and lateral side of the ankle in the provided hollow parts (use the indication on the strap to place the orthosis on the right place)
2. Secure the middle of the strap to the medial side, a bit posterior to end of the orthesis. This strap needs to be parallel to the product that is lying flat on the ground. Place now the heel on the orthosis
3. Pull both sides of the strap over the forefoot, then around the ankle to fasten it at the bottom of the velcro strap. Repeat the same steps with the second part of the strap. Fasten the black velcro strap on the black felt part and the blue velcro strap on the felt with the blue seams
4. Put the second plastic shell up, place the upper strap tight around it and wrap it around the lower leg, place the strap through the buckle and fasten it tightly. In the end place the velcro fastener on the felt part.
5. Repeat the same procedure with the lower strap. Please make sure that you use the system with the double pulley correctly
