Inversion or eversion ankle sprains
Syndesmotic ankle sprains
Medial or lateral ankle instability
Subtalar joint instability
Limits ankle inversion/eversion while not restricting plantar and dorsiflexion. Figure 8 stabilizing straps replicate ankle taping.
• Low profile brace fits in shoes and work boots
• Useful prophylactically and for ankle sprains
• Seamless design maximizes comfort
• Elastic strap closure improves compression and control of syndesmosis
• Universal fits right or left
• Includes stays for additional support
An effective ankle orthosis, which strikes a balance between strong mechanical support of an unstable ankle and maximum comfort.
• Medial rigid support acts as an anchor for an effective and integrated strap system
• Lateral side is made from a flexible material, which adapts easily to the anatomy of the ankle
• Inversion/eversion movement of the device is restricted without hindering plantar/dorsal flexion
• Maximum stability when the device is worn inside a (laced-up) shoe
Foot and ankle conditions that may benefit from motion restriction, such as: - Grade 2 and 3 ankle sprains - Stable foot fractures - Tendon or ligamentous sprain If used with the Achilles Wedge Kit, Achilles ruptures can be treated as well.

Plantar foot ulcers and wound prevention.
The patented, FDA registered Strassburg Sock has been proven effective in the largest independent night splint study ever conducted. Patients in the research study recovered in an average of 18.5 days with 97.8% of patients recovering within 8 weeks. It’s simple and comfortable. In medical research studies, 100% of patients were able to comfortably wear it when worn as directed. It’s lightweight, breathable and will not restrict sleep. It allows sufferers to sleep in any position, including belly sleepers.

Plantar fasciitis, Post-static pain, General heel pain, Drop foot, Achilles tendonitis, Lower extremity overuse injuries.
Patented articulating hinge design allows for full range of adjustable settings:
• Fully adjustable tension strap
• Holds the foot in place securely
• Provides superior comfort and unparalleled function
• Extremely well padded for superior support
• Non-skid sole for improved ambulation
• Designed for patient compliance
PTTD (Posterior Tibial Tendon Dysfunction)
• Talocalcaneal varus or valgus
• Tibialis tendonitis (posterior or anterior)
• Severe pronation or pes planus
• Ankle arthritis or Degenerative Joint Disease (DJD)
• Charcot foot
• Ankle, subtalar or midtarsal trauma
• Chronic Achilles tendonitis
Ankle-Foot Orthoses (AFOs) are designed to provide support, proper joint alignment to the foot and ankle, assist muscle weakness, and protect the foot and lower limb. This type of orthosis is typically manufactured using plastic, metal and/or carbon fibre and can be rigid, semi-rigid or articulated. AFOs are often used for patients post-stroke, or with MS (Multiple Sclerosis), spina bifida, cerebral palsy or CMT (Charcot Marie Tooth)
• Posterior Tibial Tendon Disfunction
• Acquired Adult Flatfoot Deformity
• Posterior Tibial Tendon Insufficiency
Ankle foot orthosis is particularly well suited in case of temporary dorsal flexor weakness or if only short distances are covered. It lifts the foot and reduces the risk of stumbling.
