Indications for the Malleoaction
The Thuasne Ankle Support is suitable to help with the following:
- Fragile and weakened ankles
- Resumption of activity
- Support and proprioception
Strategically-Placed Comfort Zone
Thuasne's Malleoaction Sleeve has two comfort zones, each of which is positioned around the malleoli on either side of your ankle. As these protrude from your skin, it's important that they're given extra support and protection to help prevent further injury or trauma to the area.
Improves Stability for a Better Recovery
Following an injury, the body's ability to protect itself may become impaired. With its elastic compressive weave, the Malleoaction helps improve proprioception, allowing your body to sense its position better. This design is crucial for preventing any issues with your balance and reducing the risk of reinjury during your recovery.
User-Friendly Design
Designed with patented pull tabs, the Malleoaction Sleeve can be put on in a sock-like manner, providing an easy solution to daily ankle support. Its thinner construction also makes the sleeve suitable for use inside your footwear, for stability and support on the move.
