Increased stabilization of the upper and lower ankle MalleoLoc is an anatomically self-shaping stabilizing orthosis that can be used in the immediate care and treatment of ankle injuries. After serious twisting injuries, torn ligaments, and capsular ligament strains, it stabilizes the ankle and protects it from lateral twisting. The normal heel-to-toe movement of the foot is still possible and the support can be worn therapeutically without a shoe. Anatomically self-shaping Low-fatigue cushioning Stimulates the tibialis anterior muscle KEY FEATURES Rigid shell for lateral stabilization. Functional semi-rigid strap system MEASUREMENT AND PRODUCT RANGE Indications Early functional treatment for injuries of the lateral malleolar ligaments (and the bifurcate ligaments) Capsular ligament strains Postoperative rehabilitation Chronic ligament insufficiency Materials Styrene-ethylene/butylene-styrene block copolymer (TPS-SEBS) Polyamide (PA) Ethylene Vinyl Acetate (EVA) Polyoxymethylene (POM) Polypropylene (PP) Polyester (PES) Polyurethane (PUR) Care Instructions MalleoLoc can be cleaned separately by hand washing using a mild alkali-free cleaning agent. In order to maintain the functionality of the Velcro fasteners for a long time and to avoid damage, we recommend closing them before washing. When drying, do not expose the MalleoLoc to direct heat (e.g. heating, solar radiation, etc.).
