The Active Ankle MultiPhase Ankle Brace is one of the most highly anticipated breakthroughs in ankle recovery and rehabilitation. This Active Ankle brace is replacing the Active Ankle T1 Trainer. Unlike the Active Ankle T2, the MultiPhase is more than a basketball, football or volleyball ankle brace with its ability to be used as an ankle stirrup and an athletic sports ankle brace at the same time. The MultiPhase is a revolutionary Active Ankle support due to its ability to be used right after an ankle sprain and as a prophylactic brace when returning to sports participation. Active Ankle braces are commonly used as a volleyball ankle brace or as volleyball ankle support. -
The Active Ankle MultiPhase Ankle brace works "from the hurt to the heal," meaning that this ankle support does double duty handling the acute phase all the way through rehabilitation and finally back to everyday activities/sports. -
State-of-the-art dual density padding utilizes memory foam technology to apply effective compression to assist with edema/swelling throughout the ankle. -
Memory Foam changes continually to adjust to the bony anatomy of the injured ankle. -
Inner padding liner can be easily cut down for greater comfort once the individual has resumed normal daily activities. -
Unique heel design is a solid "U" shape that cups the weight-bearing load from the ankle. This support assists in dispersing the weight of the heel with ankle sprains and degenerative joint disease and promotes pain relief. -
Bilateral Hinge is anatomically correct and promotes a large range of ankle movement which makes walking easier in this product. -
The Active Ankle MultiPhase Ankle Brace offers triple-stitched straps for added strength and a better fit. NOTE: The Active Ankle T1 had a dual strapping system. -
Reduces heel pain because the net force of the heel strike is lessened when wearing the brace. -
Resists active inversion range-of-motion (leading cause of ankle sprains). -
Active Ankle provides an instruction packet with each MultiPhase detailing ankle exercises, injury care tips and rehabilitation information. Indications: Peroneal tendon discomfort Degenerative disease Management of acute ankle sprains Reduction of heel pain Rehabilitation following ankle sprain Prophylactic ankle sprain prevention during sports Sorin Siegler, Ph.D., and Wen Liu, M.S., both of Drexel University, conducted a Heel Pain Study to test the effectiveness of the Active Ankle Brace. They found that the net force transmitted through the heel while standing or walking was reduced when patients wore the brace. It was concluded that the U-shaped design of the brace was instrumental for force attenuation during heel strike. Available Sizes: Order according to US Shoe sizes below.
