Bauerfeind AchilloTrain Achilles Tendon Support
The Bauerfeind AchilloTrain Achilles Tendon Support is designed to relieve pain and support the Achilles tendon without restricting mobility. With an anatomically optimal shape and breathable material, the AchilloTrain remains comfortable after hours of use and promotes blood circulation to encourage an expedited recovery.
How Does The AchilloTrain Achilles Support Work?
The AchilloTrain is perfect for anyone who doesn't want an Achilles tendon or heel injury to slow them down, but still needs a product that will relieve pain and accelerate healing. This support has an anatomically contoured insert which produces a massage effect, thus stimulating the surrounding tissue. It also features an integral heel cushion that relieves the tendon and helps minimise the force of impact. Oedemas and effusions can thus subside more quickly.
Whenever joint problems stop movement, the AchilloTrain Tendon support helps to restore mobility. The intermittent massage combined with the compression exerted by the knitted fabric helps to stimulate circulation, enhance metabolism and thus accelerate recovery. Whether you've got tendonitis, bursitis, or you've ruptured your Achilles tendon and need a product post surgery, the AchilloTrain Brace is sure to do a great job.
