Bauerfeind MalleoTrain Ankle Support

The MalleoTrain is designed to treat a sore ankle joint following injury, sprain, surgery, or osteoarthritis. It features an individually fitted and contoured visco-elastic cushion (pad) positioned behind each ankle bone, which helps to reduce pain and swelling. The three-dimensional knit construction sits comfortably and stimulates circulation.

At the core of the MalleoTrain's design is a knitted ankle support that incorporates an anatomically contoured silicone insert behind each ankle bone. These silicone inserts ensure the ankle bones remain pressure-free and provide intermittent compression to the soft tissue of the joint, leading to increased circulation and aiding in the reduction of swelling and edema.

The MalleoTrain also promotes proprioception, heightening sensory awareness in the ankle to increase joint stabilization. This is achieved through the anatomical knit, which applies controlled compression graduated at the edges to prevent constriction of circulation.

Crafted from a lightweight and breathable knit material, the MalleoTrain will not retain heat, making it comfortable to wear. Additionally, the garment is completely machine washable, ensuring easy care and maintenance.

The visco-elastic cushion (pad) behind each ankle bone is individually fitted to provide personalized support and pain relief. This custom fit is crucial for effectively reducing discomfort and swelling in the affected ankle joint, whether it is due to injury, sprain, surgery, or osteoarthritis.

The three-dimensional knit construction of the MalleoTrain is designed to sit comfortably on the ankle while also stimulating circulation. This specialized knitting technique helps to promote blood flow, which is essential for the healing and recovery process.

Embedded within the knitted ankle support are anatomically contoured silicone inserts positioned behind each ankle bone. These silicone inserts serve two important functions: they keep the ankle bones pressure-free and provide intermittent compression to the soft tissue of the joint. This intermittent compression helps to increase circulation, aiding in the reduction of swelling and edema.

By promoting proprioception, the MalleoTrain heightens sensory awareness in the ankle, leading to increased joint stabilization. This is achieved through the controlled compression applied by the anatomical knit, which is graduated at the edges to prevent constriction of circulation.

The lightweight and breathable nature of the MalleoTrain's knit material ensures comfort and breathability, while also being completely machine washable for easy care and maintenance. This combination of features makes the MalleoTrain an effective and user-friendly solution for treating sore ankle joints.
