Overview
The MalleoTrain® orthopedic brace is used to treat a sore ankle joint following injury, surgery or osteoarthritis. Two individually fitted and contoured cushions (pads) on the inner and outer malleolus help to reduce effusions. The three-dimensional knit sits comfortably and stimulates circulation.
- Helps to relieve pain
- Helps to reduce swelling
- Breathable material, gentle on your skin
GET BACK ON YOUR FEET FASTER!
The MalleoTrain orthopedic brace helps you every step of the way, quickly allowing you to walk again without pain. With every movement you make, the two pads also become active, massaging the ankle joint. The pads are covered in a breathable knit, with a compressive effect which provides the ankle with an intermittent compression massage, thereby improving circulation and helping to reduce swelling.
A LEAP FORWARD
MalleoTrain is one of the Train orthopedic braces that have already won two awards for their functionality and design. Patients like it because it is easy to put on, does not slip and sits firmly and comfortably in position, while physicians appreciate its anatomical shape and its stabilizing effect on the musculature.
Indications
- Postoperative and posttraumatic irritation (e.g. after sprains)
- Joint effusions and swellings from osteoarthritis and arthritis
- Tendomyopathies
- Ligamental weaknesses
Care Instructions
All Train active supports can be washed separately in the washing machine at 30 ° C with liquid detergent. Please note the following information:
- In the case of products with Velcro straps, these should be removed if possible or firmly attached to the designated place.
- If possible, pads or splints should also be removed before washing.
It is recommended to use a laundry net (spin cycle: maximum 500 revolutions per minute). Dry your Train active support in the air and not in the dryer, otherwise the knitted fabric may be impaired.
Please wash your Train active support regularly so that the compression of the knitted fabric is retained.
Cleaning and Storage
Machine-wash separately at up to 30°C using mild liquid detergent and a laundry bag. Use a gentle spin cycle and do not use bleach or fabric softener.
Allow the support to air-dry. Do not place it in a tumble dryer or expose it to direct heat or cold. Store it clean and dry away from direct sunlight.
