protect.Leva strap ankle support
- Added stability
- Adjustable strap
- Anatomically shaped
Description
protect.Leva strap is a support for compression of the soft tissue in the ankle joint with elastic strap. It includes a breathable, elastic and light material, and anatomically-shaped knit. The anatomically-shaped silicon pads enable an effective pressure relief and stabilisation. The support has an increased comfort by using softer material in the flexion area.
Protect.Leva strap can dissipate swelling (oedema, haematoma) via integrated silicon pad (massage effect) and compressive knit fabric. It enables a stabilisation of joint via the interplay of the compressive knit fabric, silicone pads and supplementary strap system. The support has also positive influence on coordination and proprioception is elicited by the compressive knit fabric and silicone pads. There is also a limitation of supination movements via a strap system which can be set to suit the individual.The compressive knitted fabric can improve proprioception. The improvement in proprioception supports the body's own guidance and stabilizes the joint.
Details:
- Breathable, elastic and light material, and anatomically-shaped knit.
- Anatomically-shaped silicone pads for effective pressure relief and stabilisation
- Added stability thanks to wide strap
Intended purpose:

Indications
All indications in which soft tissue compression with local additional pad(s) at the ankle joint is necessary and at least one direction of movement is restricted by additional functional elements, such as:
- joint sprain with overstretch of the capsule
- chronic ligamentous instability with recurrent supination traumas (twisting of the foot)
- in the second phase of treatment for lateral ligament injuries nonsurgical treatment of injuries
- of the syndesmosis not requiring surgery
Contra Indications
None known at present.
